I assume, that you had to remove the bottle to allow birds to experience its wonders?

What are you trying to figure out exactly?? Removing it is pretty straight forward - remove the wire plug and hose from the pump, remove 2 or 3 10mm bolts and than push in on the clips around the neck and push it down and out. I guess you would probably need to take the bumper off, but unless you still have the fender liners and under carriage plastic I think you can get around it.

I can laugh if you like.....I accidentally added used motor oil to the windshield washer bottle and now I need to clean it up. (mind you I was very tired and it was very dark outside-no excuse just setting that stage for your remarks.)
I was unsure if I had to remove the front bumper, or just remove the inner wheel well. I think the wheel well will be easier to remove. Thanks

Not the smartest thing to do but mistakes do happen. I used a dirty funnel with a lil oil residue in it installing washer fluid .. I should of rinse it but I wasn't thinking. I didn't remove the bottle but it took me a while to flush it out lmao

Bad enough that it was oil, even worse that it was used oil.
Just curious where it was that you were actually trying to put used oil.....

I am glad I could bring laughter from my stupidity. I do have a reason to tear apart my ride now, so that's a plus.
