Xsara washer jets...

[2thumbs]

Anyone fitted some to their Clio?

Done alot on 306's and some 106's.

Was thinking about giving it a go for the sake of a tenner.

 

[Schweppy]

Why?

They shoot a mist of water all over your windscreen instead of the normal concentrated jet.

Like so:

hmm.... just xsara ones....

 

[caister]

Ive seen other cars do this also...

 

[Bodge!]

[2thumbs]

Xsara's are cheapest I expect.

 

[flick3k]

Around a tenner posted on eGay.

Most newer VW's seem to do it

Do they actually fit the holes in the bonnet though ? Has anybody ever tried them ?

 

[bmh.01]

My dads mazda 6 does the same thing.

 

[flick3k]

lol i dont think anyone actually knows if they would fit, most of us just know what cars we've seen with them lol

looks like its down to you 2thumbs to give it ago... and report back obviously lol

I did think the same. Bunch of spammers!

I'll get some when I have money in my PayPal. Can't see them being too much of a job to fit if I'm honest.

laguna and scenics have them to, its nothin new mind u, this design has been round for years, quite good mind.

Well I never said it was a new thing.

I wanted to know if anyone had retro-fitted them to Clio's, then you bunch of cretins barged in! LOL!

 

[stewart]

I really miss these, my wee 206 had them! Make a huge difference!

 

[Bloooor]

I want some

My mates 306 and Saxo VTS has them aswell!

 

[stewart]

cud we do a group buy?

 

[2thumbs]

Not sure it's worth the hassle of a group buy over £10.

If the answer to my question was ever told, I may do some enquiries.

Just what i was thinking Billy :S

Does anyone know if there a straight fit ?

My old polo Gti used to have jets like that but they were under bonnet not on the bonnet surface

It looked like it had no washer jets but it did, they were under the back edge of the bonnet hidden.

Heres pics

Would the VW ones fit a Clio bonnet?

I couldn't tell ya.

Sorry bud

But i presume they just clip on anyway :S

 

[MT AUDIO]

lol at are they difficult to fit.d/c the hose connected to them, then they just need popping out,most vehicles have the same fitment,just check the pilot hole

 

[MRBILLYUK]

^^^ I don't recall anybody asking " are they difficult to fit " :S . They just look bigger than the Clio washer jets so maybe the holes in bonnet on a Clio aren't big enough

The washer jets on my Polo Gti that i pictured were hidden on the underneath of the bonnet.

So when you looked at the bonnet there was no washer jets.

So if you were to fit these to the clio you'd have to weld up and fill the standard washer jet holes and drill new ones on the inside of the bonnet.

Do they Xsar ones clip into washer jet holes on the outside of the bonnet ?
