Why do you want a photo?

What is it you need to know?

The reason I was after photos was to get some ideas for placement locations of the nozzle, pumps and reservoirs.

Not exactly a lot of room in the engine bay!

I use the washer bottle for the water injection resevoir , the pump is mounted under the washer bottle . All I have to make sure of is that I use a washer fluid that contains methanol . The water is injected between the inter cooler and the throttle body , I have a hose with a boss on the side to take the nozzle .

5 Type R,

I am sure you asked this question ages ago and I posted a long answer (i.e. much longer instructions than this) with photos

Summary Version

Put all the WI stuff on a 3-4mm ally plate and then screw it to the left hand chassis member - there is a tapped hole directly below the fuel filter.

Shim it with hard foam to stop the pump noise running into the car, also the protect the WI components.

Tap your injector into the intercooler just before the throttle body - or the pipe if you have FMIC.

All very easy peasy really.
