Personally, I don't see this as great problem as I think whole concept of headlight washers is rather silly... In any case, having an empty nozzle socket just looks wrong. My solution to the empty socket problem was use nonworking replacements that my son designed and printed on the 3D resin printer. These replacements are purely cosmetic and that's OK with me because I can't imagine actually using headlight washers anyway.

liked your site ,, very nice ,,, too bad i couldn't find a place to ask questions.

As i have a couple Qs about your jack and axle stand point and how you got your car there I tried to use a Pelican article but that didnt work for me. They wanted you to jack inboard of the factory jack point and use factory jack point for axle stand. No way that is working for me .. Wondered how you did it.
