Default Headlight washer hoses

How are the hoses routed in the front of the car? Are they accessible without removing the front bumper cover?

They are impossible to get to without removing the front bumper on 86-. They rest tight on top of the aluminum bumper underneath the cover.

I'm not sure about later years like yours but I figure they must be similar.

I redid the headlight washer system only to find out the pump shorts out with the low beams in my headlights so it is disconnected.

Best of luck on your repair and to hoping they work correctly.

Thanks!

Mine do work, but the driver side one is a bit weak. I suspect there is a sticky check valve in there somewhere - if I only knew where to look for it.

Does anyone have a picture with the front bumper off and the hoses and check valves visible?
