I would just use a factory reservoir.

try a junk yard for a cheap one.


There might be three bolts.
one on each side of the HOT line. and one below forming a triangle.

the partstrain website just gives general reservoirs....none that will physically fit the TL


you will need a reservoir that physically fits and mounts to the same mounting points.
A stock one from the factory/dealership will do.

the part you are looking for is #1 in the diagram.

I went to Acuraoemparts.com
and found this under the "RADIATOR HOSE" tab.
it sells for $11.34
