Can't really help you there mate, but you can clean the engine bay up a bit by putting the cannister under the wheel arch and moving the wiring loom behind the overflow container, washer reservoir to in front of radiator. No holes need to be drilled and it gets rid of that spagetti look - a good weekend job! If you have air horns put the compressor where the washer bottle is and run the tube around under the guard lip.
