    99+ is on the strut tower, you need to either shorten the hose or get a new hose to connect the rad to overflow.

    Or you buy this one and get some hose from local parts store. Call it done.

    I just drilled some holes in the strut tower where the overflow sits and set it up there bolted it fast and cut my overflow line to fit it. Pretty easy to do.

    Go to JY with a 10mm socket and trim popper tool (aka screwdriver for some of you). Unbolt the tank and unclip the hose from the raaditor. Look down, there's a whitish piece sticking out. Pop the center out like any trim clip and it'll come right out. Put that white piece on your car and then drill two holes for screws to hold the top. Done.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
