I believe the metal one feeds the cooling system, so that's the one you need. Plastic one is the window washer. Don't put it in there!

The plastic one with the yellow top marked "coolant" is expansion from the cooling system.

Fill the metal tank with coolant to top up the system.

If you have a newage car you will have a plastic coolant bottle on the right hand side of the radiator this needs to be filled up to the lowest level when cold there are marks for hot and cold levels.
