Default Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir Tank

Hi Gents,

Does anybody no where I can buy a replacement Reservoir Tank for a standard Sierra master cylinder? After deciding to bleed the brakes yesterday, I found that the reservoir tank had a split in the tank under the seal, with DOT 4 all over the floor.. Errr

I was wondering about just replacing it with a remote reservoir with a twin outlet, (Is a float switch required for the IVA?)

I saw this; does anyone know it will fit as a direct replacement?

This is all thats stopping me now from the first test drive!

Turns out that the Kit Spares Tank I ordered is a direct replacement for the original Sierra tank, so at the next opportunity I will get the Roadster out for the first test drive!
