a lot of the bottles on summit come with some kind of mounting bracket. i personally just picked up a cheapy reservoir from the parts store, and bolted its bracket into my taurus fan's shroud, im sure you can do the same with one of the real bottles.

there isin't much of a surface for anything on this black magic fan shroud.

i guess i'm just looking for something like the prior owner had. it hooked over the top/bottom of the radiator and held the container in the center section. it was simple but it worked. i believe he made his.

i work at a fabrication shop if i have to make my own, but i just wanted to find something specifically paired together.

just buy a long thin peice of metal about an inch wide, and taller than the rad from somewhere like home depot. use something to make a couple bends and make yourself a bracket that will attach to the top and bottom of the rad
