4th gen windshield washer reservoir

Hey guys i just picked up a 4th gen washer tank reservoir for my 3rd gen and the install seems pretty simple. The question i had is about the pump that is located on the 4th gen reservoir. I was wondering do i keep that mounted and run a longer hose to that pump or do i remove that pump and just run the hose inside the reservoir? If i do in fact use that pump how do i wire it. I havent looked to much at my stock reservoir but from what i recall there isnt a pump located on the stock tank, it just has the hose going into the cap and a hose pickup on the inside? Any clearification would be great. Thanks in advance

Alright well i figured it out myself. I ended up removing the pump from the 4th gen tank and running a hose into where the pump was at. Everything is working great and it looks so much better then a big tank sitting on the fender.

The wheel arches really can look nice, removing the tanks is just the first step.

Most people have issues with their temps running higher without the front air dam, you may get more traction with this on the Cooling board?
