Please be patient with me as I'm stupid.I have a '54 Wolseley 4/44 with a Rover V8.The bloke that modded the car fitted what appears to be BL pedals anc brake master cylinder.My problem is that the master cylinder and reservoir are inside the drivers glovebox.With the steering wheel in the way and not a lot of space above the cylinder in the glovebox its not easy to top up(besides looking crap).Seen these remote reservoirs advertised.My question is can I just drill a hole in the plastic filler cap and route a pipe through the bulkhead for the new reservoir so I can top it up in the engine bay?If so what type of pipe?what sort of fittings on the filler cap?how do I seal the fillercap so it doesnt overflow?Am I talking nonsense?
TIA

My reading says you have something like this

If so you could swap it for
http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_in ... s_id=16839
And then fit your remote filler and pipe correctly
Oh and if you have not yet got a remote reservoir get one with a float indicator light so a light comes on if you loose fluid
