Mike on here did it. You need the bumper trim with headlight washers in it. 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 bloody expensive to do on a 206, its also not worth the bother.
Its £318 just for the parts only

I was wondering if the washer jets off a 307 could be retro fitted, modding the bumper and adding a 'T' connecter and extra pipe work..

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.

What if you could fit a pump from a vehicle with washer jets to the original washer bottle?

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.
