The Vento bonnet I have now fitted has got the washer jet holes filled so the next question is what do I use to fit washer jets under the bonnet?
Do I fit ones that clip under the bonnet, clip to the plastic scuttle panels or do I drill into the scuttle and fit screw fit washer jets?
Is there any jets that fit that I can re-use the heated jet wiring?
-
My vr has the originals on the skuttle.
-
You can buy a kit that fits the washers on the arms/blades themselves.I had one msyelf many years ago,would'nt be difficult to make one though.

Any pictures Tweed??? :smug:
I was also thinking if they are still available the ones they fitted to Citroen BX wiper arms!!!
-

-
Was it an easy job and did they fit between the windscreen and the vertical piece that runs from wing to wing???

im sure iv read somewere that some1 fitted some mk4 washers under the bonnet?
-
You can get washer jets in halfords that bolt on, just drill the scuttle panel / cover.
-
Will pop in there and check out there range, are they between the naff LED's and the Fairy Dust range??? :grin:
-
Just use the mk4 ones and hotglue them onto the scuttle, they give a nice spray pattern aswell instead of just a jet.
-
The answer I found was from an American RV specialist with some clip on washer jets and feeding the washer pipes behind the wiper arms, Job done.

Im not feeling the visible hoses, especially when going to the trouble of smoothing the bonnet only to clutter up the scuttle area instead.

I am still on the look out for black washer pipe, once I have some I think/hope this will look 100% better with some replacement black wipers too. :smug:

Just fit Mk4 washers, I can take a picture of mine later to show you how they look/fit. Surely that's the tidiest option?

I used mercedes vito one's,they go on the pivot point of the metal part and point downwards.they have 5 squirter holes per arm.They are similar to these but the bit the tube goes on to is much shorter.:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-MERCEDES-VITO-Front-Screen-Windscreen-Wiper-Wipers-Blades-Washer-Jets-22-26-/250938244008
