I find that I use my windshield washer frequently, and the stock jets are pretty bad. And if they get out of alignment, I think you just have to buy another car. I started looking into washer jet options, and found a mod in the uberpost. However, this doesn't talk much about which nozzles work on the federal Elise. The added fact that many fan nozzles are not adjustable makes this a hard part to find.

I believe that ours are different from the more common hood/bonnet mounted nozzles. Maybe not.

Have you done such a mod, and can you tell me what part numbers or intended fitment the nozzles are? Even a knowledgeable vendor would be very helpful.

Different wiper arm

Hello
I bought a special wiper arm (if I'm right from eliseparts.com, ist lenght is slightly smaller than the original arm), which has a third opening in the middle. You need to add a divider to the existing hose and then the cleaning water comes out from the middle of the wiper blade too and distributes it quite good.

Anyone know how to replace the nozzle? Didn't find any instructions.

Thanks ccqqmm, I looked that up. With shipping it would be pretty pricy to the US, but I bet I could make a similar solution.

xvdarkyxv, I haven't pulled them yet. I understand, and it looks accurate, that by pulling the access panels you can easily disconnect them and push them through. I seem to remember they are retained by a nut, but it may be a squeeze type release.

As far as I know the upgrade wiper arm comes from the old Renault Twingo, maybe you can order this part in the US from someone else.
