Default D.I.Y. Coolant reservoir bottle

Friend and i were working on the car LATE last night and we forgot to put the reservoir bottle back in. Got to work and smelled coolant. I was like "WTF?" opened up the hood and the headers melted a hole right through the bottom. Labor Day....no one open... no homies with extra bottles laying around...so made this in five mins. Air conditioning on, cruising at 80, in 95 degree heat no probs...

BTW: WTB one coolant reservoir tank for 94-up integra gsr...haha

yowser, i would change that asap, i dont think the thin walls of the bottle will hold up very well in the heat of your engine bay
