ive always thought theyd be useful on the highway. But i only ever tried once, and the bugs didnt come off, so i never tried again. That being said, all the highways around here are through mountians, and i dont take the supra through the mountians in the winter, summer time only
whats the point of headlight washers?

Godammit!! FTWWWWW!!!! :icon_bigg :icon_bigg :icon_bigg I have a need to spray someone now :icon_razz :nono: :evil2:
My nozels tips are broken off so we aimed them to shoot 10-15 feet i nthe air and land directly infront of the car, its enough to soak a car infront of me at a light or behind me while moving, or soak kids walking infront of the car at a light. Best option ever.

Only have used them a few times, and only in the winter time. (When I used to have one car, the Supra, I had studded snow tires on RAV4 steel rims, and summer tires on the sawblades... then my MK4TT rims..)
They work great on snow and ice build up. (Seriously a problem when your driving in weather that is just cold enough to freeze everything in the air flow, but the ground is warm, so the road is wet. Your car quickly builds up a coating of ice, and even your lamps get glazed over.) The only thing that would be better is to run a coil of coolant fed copper tubing in the washer tank to pre-heat the fluid. That would rock on ice and snow.
(My A8 has this, and I love it, cleans ice off the windshield, and the power washers/squirters work great on that car like they do on the Supra.)
I wonder how many people have two cars with headlight squirters? LOL (My Dad has a S500 Merc with wipers, and they are cool too, but can collect ice in the wrong conditions.
I've been on trips where everything on my car is coated with an inch of ice or more. It get's to the point where you have to stop every hour or so and chip all the ice off the upper edge of the windshield, and head lamps. On my work car, ice coated the antenna to the point where it was about 4" in diameter.. :0

i turned mine around and have the pointed in front of my car nuff said LOL get behind a ricer at a stop light and spray his car with them lmao, acid water ftw lol i dunno
The headlight sprayers do a great job of getting water spots all over the front of the car, and a very poor job of washing the headlights.
i have them on my uk spec 87 n/a. i think there standard right through for us.
My other car has washers and wipers on its headlights. its a 1992 ford sierra saphire 4x4 ghia

i wouldnt do that lmao. Its like when you install them just put them in "wrong" so to speak
LOL, don't use the chisel, just the hammer.
There is probably a clip on the back side, remove it and it should be easy to figure it out.
