Windscreen washer mod

Time & Tools
Time:	10 mins

The "peugeot windscreen washer mod" is great for anyone who drives their car on bad weather days but likes to remain able to see out of the front.

The mod is totally easy, but it took me best part of an hour to get the necessary detail out of the forum search. I'll re-post here:

1. Nip to you friendly neighbourhood peugeot parts desk, and ask for Peugeot part number 643861 (Bin A6C5) - a "Spray Ramp". It costs about £7. Some people have used a similar TVR part, but this costs £12 and your nearest TVR dealer is probably further away than your nearest peugeot dealer.
2. Get hold of some small black cable ties and an adjustable spanner. Some black electrical tape is also handy.
3. Remove the washer bottle from the front service compartment. Follow the hose with your fingers, and remove it from the plastic T section. Also remove the plastic T section.
4. On the outside of the service compartment, remove the sleeve from around one of your existing window washer nozzles. Then use the spanner to remove the washer nozzle. I found that I didn't need to get a spanner to the nut on the underside, holding it with my fingers was sufficient. Removing the existing washer jet allows the mod to be completed without drilling a hole in your car, making the mod totally reversible.
5. post the black tube from the peugeot part through the nozzle hole, and connect it to the hose from the washer bottle. At this point, I tested the spray ramp to be sure I knew how it worked and how best to mount it. There is a hole on the end of the ramp which is easy to direct too wide - fun when a cyclist passes you, but not fun when you have the roof off!
6. cable-tie & tape the spray ramp to your wiper arm/blade, making sure the holes point forward. Test again, then return the washer bottle to the service compartment and shut the lid.
7. Job done. Takes about 10 mins.

For even more spraying fun, you could even use 2 spray ramps and resurrect the T piece, but I found this was not necessary.
