Basickly you need to cut the battery tray out and replace with the 4th gen unit, may have some issues with the neck, but pretty easy to do.
The washer tank is really easy, just extend the wires and the washer fluid tubes. You do need to remove a small support, but it's only held in by 3 bolts.

Do tell. I tried like hell to get it in there, and it will NOT fit. Do you have TPI? Maybe thats my problem, and it just wont work with the factory TPI ducting.

Re: 4th gen batt. tray/coolant can
A guy on here was able to hide all of the washer bottle except for the cap. He showed me pictures, and I tried and tried... I couldnt do it. I built a new triangular brace for the hood support and all. Mine is all cut up...it wont look TOO bad when Im done. Better than the yellowed dirty bottle that was in there. And since I cant get my original washer bottle anymore, I went with the 4th gen. Oh...and the 4th gen pump really puts out the pressure! I found leaks right away and had to redo my hoses. Thank thing turned my washers from squirt guns to super soakers!
As for the coolant bottle... What I did since I had a donor car, is I cut the area for the bottle out of the donor, and then layed it in my car on the passener side where my charcoal canister was. Traced the opening (weird shape), cut it, cut some of the fender brace that was below it, and that was that. Fits perfectly, looks great, and all you can see is the reservoir cap.
