those of you who have removed washer jets from bonnet and smoothed it over, where have you relocated the washer jets to and how is it done??
the reason im askin is that ive just bought the bonnet below, and the holes have been smoothed over, so at the moment i cant clear my windscreen.
im willing to buy a scuttle or wiper arm with the washer jets relocated so any links welcome.
thanks alot.

storm do a single wiper with washerattachment.
Or modify pug 405 stuff to fit your wiper arms!
Or just fit the original washer jets ino the scuttle panel if your still running standard scuttle!

if you still have the two wipersthen yes you would need two.
But in that case the 405 ones would be better or you could very easily make your own!

did your bonnet fit ok btw?? the big pin in the middle doesnt quite line up, and the bonnet catch (which you pull at front of standard bonnet) doesnt fit at all. at the moment, it fits rock solid, but someone has to pull the release inside the car while someone else lifts it up with brute force from outside lol
