Can you take the jets apart and "fix" them? I wired mine all up, to the ignition coil, and all the power is getting to the jets, but they arent warm at all! They were warm, but it lasted for about a day, then they stopped working!?

Finally got a pic of the washer jet mod i did, with the heated jets...




Yellow piping?! Mine are pink :D

The Bora washer jets are a spray pattern and really coat your windscreen I am waiting for a pair from a Bora in a scrapyard I'll have the pump as well just in case I can make it fit!!!

I upgraded mine from single jets to twin jets. That helps.

I'm not sure you'll get bora ones to fit in the existing slots though?! :S At least the way i did it it looks factory, and is easy as pie :D

Go to VW and they'll sell you a non-heated Bora washer jet for £1.87+VAT, or a heated one for £12.10+VAT :)

Or a MK2 one for 15.24+VAT  :shocked:
