Have some spray jets installed in the little dimples on the underscoop tray, and some hose, and was planning to link to the headlight washer setup since it is useless. However, it uses a much larger hose barb than the hose I have and the spray barbs - where to get some connectors - Halfords? Any other suggestions before I have fun with their parts dept tomorrow? Also need a Y-piece to join the hose for the two jets.

You have headlight washers? Why don't I have one?

edit~ I've seen some in Halfords a few days back if you're looking for parts. The thought has played in my mind to make one from the parts in Halfords. In the end, I just ordered one from a breakers (Importcarparts) from an STI with all the brackets, tank, pressure switch and switches all for less than 80 quid. Not bad eh?

John: If you have a B+Q near you they have a whole range of nozzles/jets, T-pieces, Ys and more.On this ocassion better than Halfords. It is for hydroponics so I guess other garden centres will have similar gear if B+Q have not got up there yet.

P.S. For max. cooling you need a fine mist not a water spray. This is because it is the evapouration of the spray that removes most of the latent heat and not the water wash acting as the primary cooling agent as you might expect.
Hope this is helpful.

Thanks I've got some proper IC waterspray jets. I'll take a look in B+Q.
