Default Windshield wiper fluid delete?

I've been looking online for awhile now and can't seem to come across a sure fire way of deleting the windshield wiper fluid. I'm trying to clean up my del sols's engine bay and it's just in the way so does anyone know how to get rid of it? or hide it somewhere? Any input appreciated!.

Thanks.

The wiper fluid reservior a very simple mechanism.
If you want to remove it just get in there and do it.
Its one connector and a few 10mm bolts.
You should only require a 10mm socket.
Dont be afraid its not going to break anything if you dont want it in there anymore.
Just be gentle when removing it, you might want to put it back one day.

I was going to say the same but i wasn't sure if he meant also the plugs on the top that actually shoot out the fluids. Only way i know of removing thoses is pulling them off and bando-ing the hood.

Not sure if it's the same for the Del Sol, but for the Civic, removal of the front bumper is needed to access the reservoir and motor.
