Deleting headlamp washer?
« on: 31 May 2011, 16:54 »
Does anyone know the process to disable the headlight washer? Would just taking the fuse out work or would I need to remove a pump etc? Cheers

Oh ok fair enough, I think I'm gonna take the jets off completely just so I don't end up getting through 5L of washer fluid every week lol! Can't see it being a problem just taking the jets out and maybe the pump and fuse. If anyone has done this before I would appreciate any tips/advice :)
