Windscreen washer system

Following storm Dorris, today was a lovely warm day so went out for a few hours. I had the washer system waiting to be fitted so that was the first job of the day.  Quite straight forwards, I fitted the washer jet to the centre hole which was pre-cut into the scuttle. This simply screwed into place.


Next up was to run the pipe from the jet to the washer fluid bottle. Quite simple as I followed the route of the brake pipes so just clipped it to that. Im not sure that having the jet directly above the main fuse panel is a great design but then again I cant see me using the washers that often.



Finally was to fit the washer bottle. This was two rivnuts that went into the footwell. These were then covered with nut caps for the IVA. The washer bottle then slid onto the fitting and I reinforced it with a bit of foam to ensure it doesnt slip off.
