Do a search on here and you should find my thread about fitting Peugot jets.

Ooops it appears you can not find it by searching.
Anyway Pug 607 jets fit straight in and give a really good spread of water.

I think it might have been on the old forum.
What do you want to know?

If they are off a Peugeot 607 the part number is 6438C2 and they are £1.34 + vat each.
I've just ordered 2 from my local main dealer

cheers called my dealer and I have to pay before they will order
but
he has 3 in stock so im off to get them later :mrgreen:

my van is in with PEET getting the front window corners repaired so this idea has come at the perfect time.

the cheapest genuine VW washer jets I have found are £4 each + P&P so this sounds good, a bit different and if they do a better job all the better

thanks

They put a lot of water on the screen.
They do sit a little low to the body and, as a consequence, the lower edge of the water jet/spray catches on the windscreen rubber.
I put mine in without a rubber gasket between it and the body.
But you could use a piece of bicycle inner tube (stuck to the base of the jet) as a gasket.

Much better than the one squirt widdler that came as standard - and a good price as well.

Eventually we're all going to end up with half breeds with bits of Peugeot, Fiat, Mercedes...

Still not many vehicles you can do that with!

Yes, but isn't that part of the fun of owning these beasts?
