I'm curious. What's wrong with the one you have? They're plastic, as I'm sure you know. As long yours isn't damaged, can't you just clean it and, if needed, paint it? The one on my 102,000 mile, '73 Custom Cruiser looks as good as the day it was made. It just sits there off to the side watching the world go by. What can happen to it?

They're used 71-76 on 88/98 and possibly some Toronado. Ones from early 70s seem to generally be an opaque white plastic; later ones are a "clearer" plastic that reminds me of a plastic food storage container.

Most will have provision for mounting a low washer fluid level detector. Every 71-76 car I've owned had that option, but it seems to work spotty at best.

The one in my '73 is exactly this. You can see through it to tell the fluid level.
