I’ve noticed that some cars don’t have headlight washers, is it possible to delete that on GT3? Here’s an example of a GT4 without it.

Nope, or I would have certainly opted for it. Hate em.

raclaims

Yeah me too...totally useless.

So how did cars like that GT4 get spec's without headlight washers? Sorry about my iphone glitch on that previous post, thought they fixed it

Best way to minimize this total nonsense of headlight washer warts is to make sure that they are painted body color.

Archimedes

Most Porsches with non-PDLS headlights come without the washers. Not the GT3. Unfortunately. I've specced mine body color.

In the US market, if you have xenon or LED headlamps, you have to have a headlamp washing apparatus as standard. Maybe the GT4s didn't have xenon?

bigskyGT3

yep headlight nips and roof wart are mandatory.

Archimedes

I'm fairly certain that the base headlights on my C2S are Xenon and I don't have any headlight washers on the car. I'll need to take a closer look but I'm fairly sure HID Xenons were standard on that car.

Archimedes

Roof wart is mandatory even without speccing Bose?

Aren't the .2 headlight warts black instead of chrome?

bigskyGT3

I believe so

ExMB

Headlight washers depend on the W rating of the Xenons: 25W = none, 35w = yes.

There is the difference between GT4 OEM std and the GT3 OEM std.

Everybody else and their guesses should google DOT requirements.

P.S.
GT4 came factory std with 25W xenons.

It’s absent from almost every GT3 pic I’ve seen and it wasn’t on the Touring they displayed at the reveal.

This is a US DOT spec as ExMB mentioned above
