A continuation of my previous offering of a relatively inexpensive & easy-to-install alternative brake fluid reservoir assembly to replace the all-too-familiar cracked/leaking original X1/9 brake fluid reservoir.

This X1/9 Brake Fluid Reservoir Replacement Kit consists of the following items:
1500 style, unassembled (shim strip not shown):
1500 style, assembled (shim strip not shown):
I currently have 8 units available in a "pre-production mode" (ie: all raw parts are on hand, with modification/fabrication scheduled to be completed by next Mon./Tues. May 12/13). These will be available on a "first come, first served" basis beginning today. If you want one of these, speak up NOW. When they're sold out, it may be a while until I can make another batch depending on my ability to find good usable conversion cores & the free time I have available to fabricate the kits.
Price is $45 each (USA shipping included), payment via Paypal is preferred, thanks. :italia:

This X1/9 Brake Fluid Reservoir Replacement Kit consists of the following items:
- A modified used BMW plastic brake fluid reservoir.
- 1300 style plain black cap with small mesh strainer fitting or 1500 style 2-spade float sensor cap (black or clear rim) with float tube (tube color may vary).
- Clutch fluid reservoir adapter plate with metric mounting hardware (slightly raises clutch fluid reservoir so the brake hoses can now run beneath it).
- Reservoir rear-to-car body rubber shim strip (to fit reservoir snugly within the original X1/9 brake fluid reservoir bracket).
- Shipping via USPS First Class Mail within the USA (International shipping is available at slight additional cost - Canada is about $3 more, while Europe & Australia are about $12 more).
