Possible sale of Celebration 467

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

Which washer jets did you go for?

This was what I did a few years back, the LR ones look ok but have a longer thread and a small nut to do up.

Review of the short landrover screen washer jet. They seemed ok but are too low, when I tried to adjust the jets it either went over the roof or bottom of the screen, conclusion was that I needed a taller jet like the originals. I picked up a pair of the brass jets which are almost exactly the same size.

They were £5.99 the pair. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAIR-UNIVERSA ... 2749.l2649

The bottom clears the wipers although I had to removed the wiper linkage to get the drivers side fitted, which of course meant a sheared bolt. I managed to drill and thread it though.

They brass jets hit the middle of the screen without needing adjusted. I am glad I ordered them as the drivers side was on its last legs.

Gone for the ones with the brass bottoms and wing nut £4.29 a pair on fleaBay. Looking forward to the fun strip down to fit them :)
