Been quoted £86 for headlamp washer jets
« on: 20 February 2008, 21:49:13 »

Hi Picked up a 1998 MV6 at the weekend but the headlamp washer jets have been twocked.
The local dealer has quoted me just over £86 and has to order them in.
Is it possible to get them any cheaper anywhere else as they seem to be hard to get second hand.

Cheers

Try a few of the scrappies like:
www.dixonsvauxhallspares.co.uk
www.megavaux.co.uk
Plus others. If you go into google and type in vauxhall breakers then it will give you a list. Hope this helps.

Dealer price should be between £30 to £35 each incl VAT, i've bought 4 now!!

They are not necessarily being stolen, what happens is in the cold weather if the screen wash mix is weak the water freezes in them and when you wash the windscreen (with the lights on) the back pressure blows them off!!

Panel adhesive helps to keep them in place  :y
