Strut Tower Bar Installed

I got my strut tower bar in this afternoon. It took me about 15 minutes to move the brake fluid container and put the bar in. I also took a couple pictures so I guess I'll make a DIY... just for morons like me who have trouble figuring out where to start.

Quick question: I remounted my brake resevoir with the little arm right under it that holds the power steering hose in place. The little metal tab on the side of the brake resevoir mount is in the way, so it isn't mounted on flat. After I tighten up the screw, it seemed pretty sturdy. Anyone think that this won't hold? If not, any suggestions? Thanks.

I guess that works, but if you want it to be perfect then drill a little hole for that mounting tab. Then take some touch-up paint and paint the inside of that little hole to prevent rust from forming. Give it five minutes betwean applications of the touch-up paint and coat it about five times. That should be good. That would be one thing to do.
