I believe it's dependent on the type of bumper your 911 comes with. If you get the Sport Design bumper (That's standard on the GTS) you'll get the headlamp washers. My '18 is a GTS and did come with the washers. I've used it exactly once to see how it worked, and never used it since.

They got rid of the spray nozzles and pumps to compensate.

That is also why the painted spray nozzles are no longer on the configurator. Ironically, my 2018 monroney has them listed (since I ordered the black spray nozzles), but the car didn't even have the spray nozzles when I picked it up.

That is why I know the answer since I went back to PCNA and asked them WTF.

I was also told that the salesman were told about this (My SA was informed). So....just some feedback for your sales guy.
Lol. Thought this was a joke until I kept reading. I wonder where the extra weight came from.
