Windshelid washer filling solution

I picked this up at northern for $27. It works great, its not super fast but with almost no chance of spilling I'm happy with it.

Wouldn't a flex funnel works just as well?

Interesting solution... but I was able to pour it straight in without spilling anything.

You bought a 27 dollar pump device to get your windshield washer fluid in.

Ok.

Hahaha. Where is it at on the evo X?

I know on the IX its in the very right side of the trunk.

I rarely ever use the windshield washer fluid, but when I go to fill it, I just fill up like a pitcher or smaller container that will fit in there without spilling when lining it up.

It is kind of painful. You can't start with a full bottle and you can never empty the bottle completely either. I just use a funnel. I'm sure you can find other uses for that as well, like when its time to change your fluids (diff, trans, etc)

actually if you want an easier and cheaper solution, look into RC intro car fueling jug. they are super cheap (about 5 bucks) and has an angled spout too

Would be a pain in the *** to set up to have the fluid above the reservoir with that long stem in it.

That is unless you like jerking things off, then pump away!
