Snorkel air intake goes through inner wing to air box.
Power steering bracket is supported by another strip of metal going down to the inner arch.
I hope these are clear enough to work it out?

You can relocate the washer reservoir and stick a 100amp/h there. Need to get some new washer bottles and put them in the same location as the s2 disco.

Whilst the majority of people have chosen to remount the power steering reservoir by running an extended bracket from it's original location I have taken a slightly different route.
I have got a small sheet of scrap alloy, and mounted it to the front of the power steering pump bracket, by using the bolts used to mount the pump to the engine. The reservoir therefore sits next to the pump.
I have done this because I have abs and airbags and have limited room to move the coil and planned to put that where most people put the PS reservoir. I haven't got around to moving the coil, but do have an optima sitting in the garage waiting to go in.
Dont have any pics with me but will try to get them up over the weekend if your interested.
