mark roberts Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 yes I know, a strange request but during my 'moment' at Oulton Park, the washer bottle came off. The marshals retrieved the bottle but not the top/lid. If any one has one I'd be grateful. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomB Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 If anyone has a second one for me Id be interested too! Ive had gaffer tap over my washer bottle for 3 years now 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Try a plastic milk bottle top, one with a coarse thread. You might need to scrape the top of the threads off slightly, with a stanley knife, to help it fit. I used a fruit juice lid as the blue matched my silicone hoses 😬 Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Procter Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 odd, my washer bottle detached itself from its mounting at Oulton, something it's never done in the entire time I've owned the car... Mark I don't think they're compulsory, so you could just remove it...?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Newman Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 i think you will find they are compulsory stop being the 20% who guess the regs most people cable tie them in if you dont you will probably lose it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlesElliott Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 And a milk carton top would also be an unapproved modification.

Tyrone Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Mark, Sorry, I couldn't find my washer bottle in the garage, then I remembered, I sold it to Peter C. Sorry, I'm a numpty ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark roberts Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 No probs. Thanks for looking. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Procter Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 looks like a trip to Dartford for you then Mark Maybe you could sell the bottle with a milk carton lid to someone who isn't as constrained by the regs as you? 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark roberts Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 Andrew 😬 Wrightpayne, Thanks for the tip. The wife has just shouted out " wheres the lid to the Lemon & Lime water bottle?" Think she blamed it on our 6year old daughter 😳 Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
