windscreen washers
stageonesimmo:
Stripped the door and drilled a hole for a rubber grommet directly above the motor drive shaft exit hole. looking at the pipes, (theres 2 as I've used small bore pipe to a twin jet set-up to keep the pressure up as its such a long run of pipe), and how they sit now, should have drilled it at 45 degrees from the vertical to the left as you look at it from the back as the pipes catch the arm as it sweeps the screen, nothing too serious, but could have been better........... There's a kind of cone shaped pressing the motor exits into and I just drilled a hole in that...........
Can prolly do some pics if you want, being as its all stripped down still waiting new parts. [!Expletive Deleted!].

I wouldn't say no to a piccy showing the exit hole you drilled :)

Here you go - had to crop it a bit, but you get the idea?
Its viewed from the rear of the truck, like I said, 45 degrees round to the left would have been better as the pipes would have sat under the arm in its rest position. Too late now though eh?! :lol:

Cheers for that :-)

Reason I ask is I want to extend my washer jet pipes to loop around the hot pipes into the heater matrix so when I squirt the windscreen I get hot water on the screen which I think will be more effective at cleaning the dead bugs off!

Someone has been reading LRO magazine!! lol. Try any aquatics shop, they sell silicone tubing normally by the mtr. Also, Halfrauds with a trade discount card gets it cheaper still!!
