If you want to unclutter your engine bay, you can also hide the overflow bottle up under the front wheel arch. At the front or rear of the guard, depending on where your filler is.

On our first Cobra we hid the overflow bottle under the guard. We just used a plastic bottle and made a metal shield for it to protect it from road & track debris. We left a slot in the metal shield so we could check the fluid level. Worked very well. Just turn the wheel to full lock and look under the guard to check the level. As far as I know the under-guard overflow bottle is still going strong 10 years later.
