Mine is looking pretty nice, at least in the order confirmation. Appears just like this, on two lines of text. Hope they make it!

I got the email with the tracking #, but the EMS website has no tracking information for this.
Use this Japanese EMS tracking site: https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/em.../index_en.html

If it's not there, then it may just not be in the system yet.

Which confirmation was that from?

Across the various confirmation emails I got, it was written out in at least 3 different orders, but the address on the final package was done right.

Thanks,

I didn't know EMS has a Japan specific tracking URL. Apparently I was trying to track with the Chinese EMS site.

I have to wonder if part of the problem that some folks are having involves this: There is no acknowledgement of my zip code on the package! Besides the unconventional (albeit rational) reversal of our standard address style, these five digits's absence can wreak havoc!

No, really, the wife sent a Christmas card to an address about two miles from here and it came back due to the zip code border being the main road between our homes.

Anyway, someone assumedly stateside scrawled my zip on the package with a fat marker, and I picked it up today. One day, the temperature in my garage will crawl out of the teens...

I think you're probably right. Looking at a pic that was posted (from m.net), you can see the zip written in Sharpie on the package. It matches the zip for the location in the poster's profile: Hopatcong, New Jersey 07843

My cancel was ordered on their end. Don't know why. Oh well. I was only purchasing to replace the fill cap. Mine cracked.

Congrats.
I saw in your other thread that you have installed it already too. It looks like you mounted it in the opposite orientation of how it was shown in this revlimiter mod link (Suzuki Cappuccino (Nopro) Washer Fluid Bottle ? revlimiter.net). I think I like it oriented the way you did it better. Just curious, was it still fairly straightforward to install it that way, or did you have to fab some convoluted brackets?

I was starting to get irritated, as mine had been showing 'in customs' since Tuesday, but it was delivered today.

Ordered on the 12th.

Not that I was in much of a rush, as the car's apart for a VVT swap.

it was just like that for a test fit. I've extended the wiring but I'm finding a way to mount it properly tomorrow.

Here is my bottle mounted. Barely clears the hood. It is impossible to make to 100% flat because the hood interferes but this will do. I used a piece of aluminum on the far end and a bolt with a plastic bushing on the drivers side

You can reverse all the elbows in the hood and point them to the opposite side. I got new rubber tubing and had to get a new t fitting bc the old one disintegrated. It is 5/32 windshield washer hose from autozone
