Windshield washer fluid reservoir leaking

I could use some help with this one. Molly is pouring her windshield wiper fluid right out of the bottom.

I'm hoping my fiance can fix it, but I can't find instructions to get to the reservoir.

Thanks in advance!

Access is going to be thru the left front wheel well. I had to partially remove mine to install some oem fog lights. There are two bolts holding it down low (plus an indexing pin on the very bottom of the reservoir). There is also one bolt up top under the hood near the cap. Perhaps someone will speak up with actual removal experience but if I was trying to remove it I'd start off by removing the left front fender liner and go from there. Hopefully it can be repaired in place using some sort of epoxy putty if you can find the leak. Good luck.
