Can get it on one side (passenger side) easy as pie. But can't get the drivers side on because of the throttle cable bit of metal clamp thing and also the brake fluid pot.

Help!!

Moved to Chassis / Brakes / Steering / Wheels.

Just run the cable under the strut brace.

You have a few options for the reservoir :

Cable tie the clutch fluid reservoir to the brake fluid reservoir
Make a bracket to hold the clutch fluid reservoir in place
Relocate the clutch fluid reservoir further down the shock tower, there is apparently a nice bolt hole for it to go into

I just posted a reply in my for sale thread, but you can manipulate and bend the bracket back on itself so it sits the other side of the strut brace on the original bolt hole. But plenty of options there.

Found a pic, sorry it doesn't move the reservoir the other side of the brace, but you can bend it in a way to go under the brace:

Bend it down simples

i like that, he looks so happy

All sorted and fitted. Cable tied it as didnt have anything to bend it with. Cheers for the advise!

A 10mm bolt will allow you to place it lower down the shock tower. You probably can use the bolt that held the original holder on. This is a better solution.

I did cable tie my 4th gen's one too, but I am moving it as it is not as secure as I would like it to be.


For my 5th I made an extension bracket:

cable ties


That is all.

That looks quite neat actually. I don't have the tools or anything to make a bracket like that.
