Question Headlamp washer jet replacement ???

Hi All

I bought 2 new headlamp washer jets from 928 INT..about half the price of UK ones

But I cannot figure out how to change them ????

Looking at the cd..I know there is a nut that hold them in from underneath....BUT..HOW do i get at "underneath" lol ???

All the best Brett

They can be reached if you remove the front splash guard. Hope you have skinny arms and small hands.

Correct a large plastic nut should be finger tight ! Most often changed with the cover off the car while being resprayed.

I've tried and failed to get those on. I figure they need to go on the bumper cover before it is mounted to the body. And put the hoses on then as well. Just no way to snake a hand up there. Mine sit in the holes, disconnected.

Hi JIM

I am trying to find someone in the UK who will spray that stuff and how much etc at the moment...

Those parts you sent worked perfectly by the way apart from the fact ...I ...SORT OF FORGOT...that the air filter casing has 4 rubber straps not 2 lollllll..

Hi Jim

Will do

The temp blower worked fine..I have VARIABLE temperature now..

Porsche UK coudlnt get that blower and said none in Germany either lol..they SAID....I would have to wait for enough orders to merit a production run at the supplier...I am 53 now lol...I might not have lived that long

Impressive catalogue too....and a VERY impressive beard

All the best Brett
