Went ahead and fitted mine over the weekend, put the jet from the top mount and attached it to the bottom, just behind where my grille goes. May not do alot, but it certainly does more than a button on the dash not being attached to anything:

I am looking at relocating mine but am going to trigger it using a pressure sensor so it only squirts when on high boost.

Would it not have looked better mounted in to the top section of bumper, underneath the number plate area facing down? Then you wouldn't have to see it so much.
Just a thought.

As said before I mounted mine on the underside of the bumper (behind the number plate) using a Scania wiper spray jet, this is a long this piece of plastic with several (8 ish) jets in it. It only measures around 150mm x 15mm x 5mm and offers very good coverage on a FMIC imho. It looks discreet, works well, and never siphoned.

Well done mine today.

Bought two twin exit spray heads from Halfords for pennies and a length of 4mm blue silicone hose from eBay for a few quid.

Fitted the sprayers behind my number plate so not visible unless you lay down..



I used my rear washer for the feed as rear wiper has been removed anyway. Ran the hose to the motor on the washer bottle with a pressure valve inline so they wouldnt drip.
Works a treat .

Aha! So it isn't finished, I knew it

Come over sometime one weekend, I'll give you a demo. I'm impressed with them, although I am beginning to think I should have paid a bit more for ones with rebound adjustment as well.
