You can just pull out the reservoir altogether.

i love christmas, my parents bought me a nice new deck. now i can plug my zune into it and it sounds sooo much better than the FM transmitter i have been using. when i tore in to the exsisting radio, i found a cobbled up mess. no wonder it sounded so bad. i got the new one put in and the rats nest of wires is now fixed and i feel alot better about the wiring. amazing when you do something on your own, you feel so much more confident in it...

I've been fixing my floorboards ( I was flintstoning, really bad.) I pulled the carpets up, used a air wheel grinder and cut out all the bad spots, and riveted in sheet metal. RTV sealed them all up, and then undercoated everything. Looks pretty solid. No more draft anymore while im driving, and the carpets seem to be staying pretty dry. I got new floormats for Christmas, so my floors are looking pretty good

I had a flintstone hole in my back passenger's side. Jeep interiors are a pain, aren't they?
