Windscreen washer bottle swap - group buy?

Post by Snapfrozen » Tue Jan 15, 2013 3:04 pm

Anyone keen on a Suzuki cappuccino washer bottle group buy? Can land them at 150nzd incl gst with a 10 day lead ex Japan. Google the swap if you don't know! Ordering mine next week probably

It's one of the few things I completed on my car over Christmas. Super simple to do and will get a photo of it eventually... Too much other stuff to worry about first :lol:

I need one, as I don't have any room in the engine bay for the factory unit.

Moyes actually. Apparantly alot of the aftermarket ones have big cracking/brittleness problems according to the UK forums. This is a genuine one and don't have to deal with INTL shipping etc.

Oh, ok, I tried getting a price from the local Suziku dealership on the shore, said they would call back with a price, never did.

Ok, either way would be interested, whether you order another one for me when you get it, or I get the details off the guy from you, doesn't worry me. Bit annoying not having a washer bottle sometimes

Could be keen.
Is this just the bottle? Just wanna know if I'm going to have to run to the bolt shop or not.

You'll need 2 bolts and posssible 2 pieces of alloy to bend and drill holes in. You'll possibly need bolts. The factory pump fits right on
