DIY 2008 CTT PDCC Reservoir Replacement

Well I tackled this job today and it was super easy. I think all in all it took me about 20 minutes or so. I took pictures for anyone else that wants to do it themselves. I would recommend if you plan on doing the power steering reservoir then I would do it the same time. The reason why is you have to remove the PDCC reservoir out of the way to do the Power Steering reservoir. Both reservoirs are the exact same item, same part number and all atleast on my 08 CTT.

loxxrider is infamous around these parts

The reason for replacement is that the filter for the system is integral to the tank and the pdcc system is very sensitive to contaminants (supposedly).
