Hi,
Quick couple of questions.

1)  My windshield washer reservoir cracked and I can't seem to find any
place locally and/or on the internet that carries one.  I tried local
junk yards to no luck. I hate to go to the 'stealers" because they are
charging 138 dollars for the new bottle?  Any Help would be
appreciated. Apparently the sun cracked the bottle.

2) The interior plasticy trim that is located near the top of the door
and window(on all 4 doors) is slowing warping away from the metal
underneath.  Is there any place I can by the 4 trim pieces and how hard
is it to install yourself.  Does it just require you to take off the
piece and glue the new one up?  Thanks

In most new vehicles, windshield washer reservoirs are designed to fit into
a specific location, so they are generally model-specific.  I think your
only choices are junk yards and the dealership.

The trim piece probably comes with the interior door panel so you probably
have to replace the entire door panel.

Thanks.  Can you please tell me how to repair with epoxy.  Do I need to
find another piece of plastic to cover the cracks or do I just spread
the epoxy over the general area.
