ADM,

they're also in Australian market.

AUDM.


But to retrofit them you need...

new bumper
washer units
resovoir..

to wire them into the control (they operate when headlights are on AND you use your windscreen washer)


why bother?

It definitely is life altering, I wholeheartedly agree!!

I know this probably stupid but what exactly do those do? Spray water on your headlights to clean them right...

BlaineWasHere 02-07-2013 12:39 AM

They have these on the MKV GTI (old car) and it's literally the stupidest thing ever. Most people turn them off because they make the whole front of your car dirty.

Exactly. HID lights put out a lot less heat than halogen lights, so ice/snow buildup can be a problem. These shoot your windshield fluid at them, deicing them and cleaning them off.

They are required per Euro regulations.

Damn that is soo tight!! I was all like "how the hell does the little bump spit water out?!" wayy cool:thumbup:

tintumz22 02-07-2013 04:37 AM

First I thought it was just sensors in front. Like back up sensor that are in the rear. LOL! THAT IS SO AAAAAAAMAAAZZZZZZZIIIIINGGGGG!!!:confused0068: :bonk:

Minovsky 02-07-2013 04:39 AM

Lol, for some odd reason the first thing that comes to mind was Transformers; the way the nozzles come out and spray...

nigel-jdmparts 02-07-2013 06:38 AM

It is headlight washer! You need to buy a new bumper to fit that plus a lot of other hardware.

That's gotta be one of the strangest videos I've seen in a while lol.

jstans84 02-07-2013 08:40 AM

The only reason I could see a need for this is if you are constantly driving your car through mud. Which raises the question, why the fck are you driving your car through mud?!?

cgrey 02-07-2013 09:40 AM

Why is this available when a rear wiper isn't?

Exactly. I swear this place makes me want to run head first into a concrete wall some days. It's not like this is just a simple thing...it has motors, pumps, lines, switches, wiring....

Road salt.

I wish I had these, they really work well. Salt gets all f'n baked on the headlights.


I can't beleive the stupidity of some people on this board.."If I don't need them nobody else does mentality" yeah it's great to stop on the side of the highways at -20c to wipeout your dirty headlights. I hope you all be trollin'.

For reference, this is the headlight washer system for a 2010 Prius:

Then again, some systems are more simplified (BMW):

But really, only a dealership or someone with access to a parts catalog is going to be able to tell you what is involved

JDM_GT86 02-07-2013 04:29 PM

as far as i know it uses water pressure to pull out and runs off the same reservoir for the windshield washer.

found these only task is finding the right colored covers

dam right!! and its coming from people who don't own a frs/brz/86

CaptainSlow 02-07-2013 09:24 PM

If you're "just looking for looks", then just find the cover plate and use 2-sided 3m tape to stick them on...much easier/cheaper.

There's this thing, it's called winter. And it gets a little dirty.

I used to keep a small squeegy and bucket of water to clean the headlights in my garage. Light washers would be so much better.

cyde01 03-08-2013 03:12 PM

lol you gotta understand even in winter cars never get that dirty in the lower part of this continent unless you go off roading. most people who live in snow country don't bother driving this rwd car in the winter anyway.

I do, its scary, I like it. On a side note, I think my knuckles are permanently white now... :burnrubber:

Choco 03-08-2013 11:10 PM

I've always thought those bumps were sensors. lol

Cameronghanson 03-09-2013 06:33 PM

eh my BMW has these and they are great when the whole car is dirty, but when you just washed your car or its cleaned and you want to just wipe the windshield, it sprays that shit all over your front bumper too

hey, Sorry for reviving this thread but do you have an idea where to buy just the covers for this washer? i broke mine and fell off somewhere.

wbradley 12-15-2013 10:10 AM

I like the older Volvo and Saab systems that included a washer AND wiper. Looked as Scandinavian as IKEA.

I could see the washer only as being somewhat but barely effective in a frozen environment.

Glad my twin will never see a winter.

I had the same problem, and got a replacement from a UK dealer - RRG Macclesfield,

I needed the RHS cover, and the part number is TSU003-02708

PM me if you need more details.
