Default Washer Jets

Does anyone know where I can get the more modern mist style or fan spray front washer jets to replace the originals on my 02 STI.
Cheers.

Are they a direct easy 'plug & play' replacement?

Absolutely simple. Open bonnet, pull pipe off the back of the squirter, long nosed pliers onto the clip and push them through the hole in the bonnet. Replace with the new ones, connect pipes, job done. I cant see why the hawk bonnet holes would be any different to the bug, and they fit mine!

The standard subaru ones are rubbish. My driverside jet only works some of the time. I even replaced it at over £20 from a main stealer and its no better. Its like there should be a restrictor pill or something in the passenger sides pipe so the pressure can be increased in the drivers side. Im sure the passenger side robs all the pressure and water because of the way its piped. Maybe these fan jets will cause enough back pressure to equalize both jets.

I'm guessing like has been said, the jets will be the same across the Newage vehicles, so thanks Banny & Myles I'll see what they're like when yours arrive!
