We here at Beta Boyz are thinking about producing these washer bottles, We have almost worked out the cost of tooling and we need TWENTY orders to proceed. The price will be around the GB£30 mark. Anyone interested contact me at lancianut@msn.com.
Thanks for your support.

Is there any difference between the IE washer bottles and the carb washer bottles?
Cheers

yes they are completely different the i.e/vx bottle is far more 'modern' but unfortunately not at all durable!

I'd be interested in one for my HPE VX, as a previous owner broke it.

We have the final cost of the tooling, not good reading. Due to the small number of RHD versions required, the cost will be above £50 each, as i said not good. In a bid to reduce the cost a compromise has to be made.
Our thoughts were to combine both RHD and LHD versions into one shape, there would be obvious changes to your original bottle but this would bring down the cost to nearer the £30 area.

Before someone says the mounting points are different, that is not the issue, just the actual bottles shape.

Can anyone that has enquired please let me know their thoughts.

Its been along time coming but the tooling for these washer bottles will be starting in a few weeks, so orders will be taken soon, the cost will be
GB£47.00 each.
As I said before about combining both LHD and RHD bottles, having got hold of a LHD one to compare, they were totally different. So not to worry we are prepared to get them reproduced aswell. The cost will be about the same but we require 20 deposits of GB£25.00 to get the tooling started. For those interested email betaboyz@msn.com for details.

Finally, thanks to Bob Goldberg for supplying me with the LHD bottle to look at.

Cheers
Mark

Dont forget, we can also supply polyurethane suspension bushings for your Beta.

Hello all,
The bottle will be available from the end of October. The cost still will be GB£47.00. To see it in the flesh see our section in the gallery at www.betaboyz.co.uk .
Once again, any enquiries email betaboyz@msn.com.

Also we are happy with the finished product, so if the LHD version is wanted we can only do it if we have enough deposits.

Cheers for now,

Mark
