So the coolant reservoir I have is similar to the one you linked in your description. I have watched the video and noticed that he did not use the spill proof funnel which most youtubers I've seen use. Is there any reason for the difference? I'm just a DIYer and I'm curious on whether I should just follow his video step by step or maybe do what you did but of course squeezing the right hoses. Edit: Spelling
Spillproof funnels are not a necessity, I reccomend it because as the name suggests, they help prevent spills.Truthfully on previous cars, I had a generic funnel that pressed firmly into the riadtor cap to prevent spills, and that worked fine. If you want to prevent spills, a spillproof funnel is an easy solution, but other funnels exist that can function the same. If you don't care for spills, just use whatever funnel you have and you'll likely be fine.
