Instead of installing a a seperate bottle for the coolingmist setup, can I just use the windows washer container in the trunk by teeing off a line? Thanks.
 
YES, you can use the washer reservoir as the holding tank but you CAN NOT "T" into the line from it. You need to tap into the bottom of the tank and run a line to the cooling mist setup from that tap. If you were to use the washer line it wouldn't pull much fluid out of the tank because it would be trying to suck the fluid thru the pump for the windshield washer. Here is a picture of how I tapped into the bottom of my washer fluid reservior in the front of the car.
