Need some input from ya'll. I've been kicking some ideas around latley. There's some parts I'd like to make in limitied quantities and put out for sale. one of wich is Billet Brake fluid resiviors. These designs would actually attach directly to the master cylinders and do away with the rubber hose. I plan on offering them in either black or polished. I'm looking to offer them at a price between $65-75 usd.

Here are a couple of examples I'm working on. These are unfinised designs, but give an idea...

Basicly, I'm gauging interest. So post up and let me know what you think. Thanks.

will they have a level indicator? if so, the price would be more than fair

I've been thinking about adding in a window. See what I can do about that.

maybe something like this one will work, shouldn't be too difficult, looks at least pretty easy the little window piece with the two screws

that was the one thing we did a couple years ago but it never worked out as you need every part proofed
by the local authority (TUV).

and than we had an other version of it in mind but after the first disaster we just stop work on it

The idea was to take a solid round piece of acrylic glass milled down to 12mm
and cut an outside screw thread M12x1.25 on it and cut it into slices of 1.5mm.
The resi got cut a M12x1.25 internal screw thread and pasted
the acryli disc with a oil resistant loctite glue into it

Why not just machine a cover for the existing resv. and epoxy that in place...

it's exactly what we ended up with
the last two pictures on this page

@Scrapyard
I don't feel offended at all and I don't like the covers either but it was the only way
with this fuc.... TUV to stay streetlegal and out of trouble with the cops

just work on it, I would really like to see some pics after you're done :WINKE:
