I've recently got my hands on a 2005 Range Rover SC. Fantastic car. The (current) problem I have is the rear washer jet - in that there isn't one! The water squirts through the hole in the wiper spigot, bounces off the underside of the spoiler and on to the rear window. So it works, but not as intended.
The question is, where can I get a rear washer jet without having to get the whole wiper arm etc?
Thanks!

Why worry if it works

I can assure that you will get bigger problems.
Sorry I can only suggest to try Island 4x4 or a scrapyard

I'd just buy a new arm, 30 quid from island if you are that bothered about it. Fairly sure that it has a pipe and the jets spray it out over the blade.
The seal in the motor is worth checking as they always leak and end up trashing the motor. Now, that isn't cheap at best part of 200 notes!

get a new OEM wiper arm and blade of feeebay.
I think I paid £30 for mine recently delivered.
The rear wiper leak into the car is easy and less than £5 to fix..
See my recent post if needed....

I've just replaced my upper tailgate and washer system.
A new one way valve ( access through the L/hand compartment in boot.)
Washer jet prises out. Get it started with a pen knife or similar and simply pull down.
It's attached to a short length of clear tube which is joined into the main pipe.
Get a new jet from island 4 x 4 (£3) approx.) :
if your jet is missing you are going to have to find the clear pipe inside. Short length of wire bent into a hook should do it and scratch around.
