First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... I got an overflow from auto zone and bolted it under the fender beside the battery, ran the overflow hose down under the batt and to the bottom of the bottle, no issues... cant be seen and sure works good, I use my washer bottle for washer fluid...
