Summary

This is a remix. It puts the 1/4" NPT fitting on the side of the cap which fits under the wiper tray of my Focus ST. You must install the cap first, then install the fitting which only needs to be finger tight. I did not use a seal like Rezer said in their summary. It holds up just fine with 15-20 psi pressure and doesn't leak. Print this upside-down with no supports.

From Rezer's summary:

Cap for the brake fluid reservoir for pressure bleeding the brakes/clutch. Standard Euro E20 thread. Compatible with many brands. Tested on a BMW and Volkswagen, but also fits many other manufacturers.

Modified original model to use a 1/4" NPT thread rather than the G1/8 thread to hook it up directly to a standard US air compressor fitting. Word of caution here, if you do this make sure your regulator is working properly. Brake fluid reservoirs don't like more than a few PSI. And make sure to keep the fluid topped off, don't want to blow air directly into the brakes lines either...
