There is supposed to be a small locking tab on the underside that couldn't hold it's own weight! I fitted mine with a dab of super glue on said tab and pushed firmly home, works a treat :y

yes mate it just pushes on - should be two little clips built into the jet unit and it clicks into place in a groove on the end of the pipe that sticks out from the trim :y

Hi

Anyone know wher I can get one of these washer jets (passenger side) for a '94 Elite...??
These jets seem to be getting very hard to locate...

Great, that was a good find...
Well, I have decided to replace the headlight trim panels for some without washer jets..
Jets are just too hard to find, and often far too expensive for what they are...
In future this will be more of a problem when Omegas get rarer...
