I just replaced my booster and master cylinder. The brake fluid reservoir and strainer is dirty and I would like to just replace to whole thing. I haven't been able to find any new. Any leads?

Don't think there are any new brake reservoirs left, but you might want to try this out; it's called retr0bright and it's meant to remove yellowing from old plastic computer pieces made out of good ol' acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (that's ABS to us commonfolk). I have a sneakin' suspicion that brake fluid reservoirs (and PS fluid reservoirs... and radiator overflow tanks...) are made out of this same material, and are yellowing for the same reason. Somebody should try this out on a spare brake/PS reservoir and see if it works. The recipe for retr0bright is open source and not patented so anybody can whip up a batch and post results without fear of legal action.
