Title: Retro fit of headlight washers
Post by: andrew38 on 10 August 2011, 18:05:20

I have a new bumper to fit which has in the pressure washers, I was just going to leave them on not plumbed in but the donnor car has all of the system in place still. I have a CD model 2002 is it straight forward to get the washers operating and if so what bits would I need off of the old car, i.e pump and wiring etc. Many thanks I could not find an FAQ.

Thanks Rob, any wiring I need it must plug into the wiring somewhere from the fuse box?

Nope, all the wiring is on your car. The connector for the headlamp wash pump will be tied to your existing wiring near the sreen wash pump :y
