Mk1 to Mk2 Headlight wash jet retrofit

daznkel · 20th November 2016, 22:56

Couple of questions on this.....

Having looked at the Rimmers site (and on here), I am at a loss as to whether there is difference in the jets themselves, between Mk1 and Mk2, other than the number of them and fitting position.

I have a complete Mk1 setup from a donor car that I was considering retrofitting to my facelift. I am aware that they are L&R handed but;

Can I use Mk1 jets? If so which, presumably the outers.

Is the rest of the setup the same? Obviously the piping will be different, but anything else? Pump, tank etc?

Thanks in advance.

I dont know an answer but have noticed the shape is different, perhaps where it directs the jet?

MKI set up is two jets per lamp MKII is one jet per lamp You'll probably find the jets won't have the correct profile to sit on the bumper at the right angle
