Windshield washer resovoir

What is the easiest way to fill the windshield washer solvent in a 2020 Palazzo?

Should be on the drivers side when you raise the front hood/panel to access the generator

Thanks, I know the location but you can’t get the gallon jug of solvent in to refill the reservoir without spilling half the solution. Trying to find out an easy way to fill it.

I use a cap with a 3/8 clear plastic hose. It screws on the windshield washer fluid jug

don't remember what it came off of

It is an awkward spot for sure

It takes so little fluid...
Will a refilled 20 ounce water bottle fit in there?
Or
A funnel made from a water bottle?
Or
a wax paper funnel the length you need?
Or
A paper towel center tube?
Or
This if you're fancy

Or
This if youre really fancy
https://www.amazon.com/Liquid-Fuel-T...6400318&sr=8-5
(I'm fairly sure these are 10 bucks at harbor freight. I use mine for lots of things)

The foldable funnel is absolutely fantastic. Saw one on a YouTube video and wondered how I had never even heard of it. I have one on boat, one in coach and one at home.

I used my pump yesterday to do a partial water change on one of the hydroponic tanks.

I use a cheap harbor freight hand pump that screws into the washer fluid bottle and I drop the hose into the fluid reservoir - I’ll see if I can get a pic.

Funnel with a flexible hose. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=funnel+wi...ss_ac-a-p_7_11

That should be enough suggestions to the problem!
