Think dealers here might sell it or have to source from abroad like finland where its standard on theirs. Also a new washer bottle with the extra piping. Maybe a few other parts, not sure.

Its £318 just for the parts only

#10: Re: headlight washers Author: gtijames22, Location: stirlingPosted: Tue Mar 26, 2013 8:23 pm ---- thats the route i was thinking about going for, cutting the bumper and splicing into the windscreen wash pipework, surely cant be that hard, unless the pump cant handle the extra load.

It cant.
You need to use the correct high capacity pump else the headlamp washers wont have the pressure there to be able to lift & then squirt.

It would work but the bottle is only about 3 litres so could need topping up a lot more often.
The headlamp washers need lots of fluid pressure to lift them up against the spring pressure inside the jet body pulling them back down.
