I think most people just live without WW fluid when they do the Alky kit.

I just left the washers connected to the tank with meth in it. Dries a little too fast but I rarely need it. Works fine when I do.

I might just do that. People seem to get a kick out of me reaching out squirting water on the windshield which then all comes back into the drivers window.

I run the AIS fuel cell for the meth that is designed to go in rear cubby and looks factory.

I was just asking Alkycontrol the same question because I don't want to loose my WW tank. I use mine quite a bit on trips. They recommended adding a washer bottle on the C6 and mount it passenger front. I pan to take a look when I get back in town and see if I can find a good place to mount a washer bottle.

Just run 50/50 water/meth, which is basically washer fluid. Hell you can use washer fluid for the meth kit.

My meth tank is in one of the two hide away compartments. I like this much better and I still have windshield washer fluid if I ever need it.

Yes if I had to do over again I would do this. Ive gotten pretty good at squirting from a sport bottle at stoplights.
There really are times when we need our windshield washer though. Especially going through jersey

No way I would have a fuel inside the cabin with me. Huge safety hazard. Just use meth on your windshield, and be done. No added cost, no safety issues.
