Default Relocating washer bottle for my Safari snorkel

When I bought my jeep the PO gave me a Safari snorkel thats made for the pre 96 years that have the washer bottle on the passenger side. My jeep is a 99 and the washer bottle is in the way to mount the snorkel. Does anyone know where I can relocate the washer bottle or even some pics of where to move it? I'm also missing the template to mount the snorkel, does anyone have the template or know if I will even need one?

hows the weather down there... i wanna live in Chorpus Christie some day.... but anyway.. all you need to do is go to a pick n pull yard and pick up a early model washer fluid resevior and then mount in where they had it on the early years then re-run your fluid lines and i'm sure you would need to extend the power wires also but its not too difficult...

my budy discovered how well installing bushwacker flares on his 97 goes with that stupid bottle in there haha

The weather is great right now sunny and around 70F. This was plan B but I figured if I could make the washer bottle that I have now work I might as well save a few bucks.

I dont mean to be rude with that.. but keep in mind that your thread will be searched by others who know little to nothing.

Isnt there instructions for that on the sheet that came with it? If not some goober packed it and you will need to go on the manufacturer web site and down load a PDF specific for the one you bought

Good Luck!

i saw a pic on jeep forum where the guy blocked off the hole in his and then cut new ones in the opposite side and put it in the other fender. Looked great but seems like a lot of work
