What cars have washers built into the wipers?
Looking for a combined unit for my GT40 kit as I need washers for SVA.

Some Renaults as well. Not sure which but I remember collecting a few when I worked at the local dealership to use on my rally car. They are a piece of black plastic tube with a few small holes along the lenth, the water pipe fits on the end. The whole piece can be removed from the wiper arm and fitted to any car/wiper.

Leven Technology in Basildon do a nice upgrade for the TVR ones for about 60 quid. Replaces the leaky tubes with proper washers built into the arms. Might be worth a look?

You can get the 405 Mi16 spraybars/wipers from Gsfcarparts.com, brand new for about £12

Newer shape Renault Master vans have them. Quite a nice setup on these.

Just here to confirm with Davey P, Mercedes make them and are fitted to their recent Sprinter Vans, but don't know if they fit them to their cars.
