How do they come out? :? They're heated if that makes any difference.

There is a little clip you need to clip back thats at the rear of the washer jet body, from under the hood, the thing then unclips from the plug, its all up in the slots in the bonnet

Sorry im crap at trying to explain things :cool:


Its easier to clean em out with a little washing up liquid and a fine needle in situ

Clear as mud, cheers :) . I've given it the needle treatment and it still just dribbles out so I think removal and a soak is the best option.

I haven't had the chance for an inspection yet, I just know one of the jets on the passenger side doesn't really work.
