Just wondering if anyone has done this or not?  I built the same setup in my Probe and it was very convenient because the stock windshield reservoir always told me when I was low on water/meth.  I'd like to look at using the same setup for the Sky, and I was hoping someone else has done this so I can copy their routing/mounting setup etc.

Yes I used the stock kappa washer reservoir and would do it again, at least with my installation I haven't had issues like leaking and I used E6000 adhesive.  You can find my detailed post from 5 years ago with pictures is on that other forum, so it has been working for 5 years.   The title of the post is: 06 Solstice Methanol Kit Install

That's fine.  I can find it.

Thanks for the information!

Yeah I think with the no lift shift my intake temps sky rocket because the turbo never stops pumping air through an entire run which really kicks the temps up much quicker than just shifting normally.

The washer bottle was the standard way that DDM did it - I assume it still is.
