Ill be relocating the battery to the spare tire compartment. So I'm looking for something to fill in that stock area instead of leaving a gaping hole. I was thinking of an aftermarket overflow tank but not sure which one would fit. Anybody have any suggestions or pictures?? I can't find any pictures for a 4th gen

Where is the overflow going to go? Looks a little tall to fit over there

Im going to mount it next to the radiator. On the flat part on rad support. To the right of the headlight assembly. When your facing from front of car.

I did a test fit. And it will clear everything with plenty of room.

I have an aluminum overflow tank and a "remote distribution block" that my factory battery cables screw in to. The main positive cable runs to it from the battery in the trunk. Nice thing about this is I can move the battery back up at any time if need be and the factory cables are still in tact.

Any pictures of the tank?
I just don't like the random snorkle sticking up in an empty spot when I relocate the battery
