I've got holes in my bumper that I was informed are for headlight washer jets...How do these wire up in simple term please or can I just run a pipe from the windscreen washer jets with a T piece.
I'd rather have them there instead of holes
Cheers

What controls do you have on steering column, or wherever, to operate the headlight jets? Are there any?

None as far as I.know apart from the usual front and rear wash wipe but I thought they'd work with the windscreen washer

I don't know about discos but some cars wash the headlamp about every 4th time you operate the windscreen washer.

My first thoughts were that if you T in to the windscreen water pipe you might get a bit of drain back, through the various branches, which will cause a delay when you try to wash your screen. If you decide to do that you can get one way valves to go in the water pipes to stop back flow.
Are you sure the holes aren't off spot lights the previous owner had on?

Definitely not off spotlights as they're directly under the center of the headlights in the bumper.
Spotlights there would block the headlights.
Can't think of anything else it would be apart from washers

Yeah, sounds like washer jets, then.

I might just but a second pump and fit a separate switch for them. Seems easiest option
