Call me stupid if you like but why do they need headlight washers, its one of the only sports cars i have seen with them on, would anyone recommend getting rid of them seeing as i have the bumper off anyway?

 

Required by law for HID lamps.


Edit..Dug this bit of light reading up for you.

gutted i wanted my bumper all smooth like they have them in the states.....

 

although if that rule aint in the mot handbook then it will still pass the mot, ill ask a mot tester see what he says, hmmmmm

 

Yes, it'll pass an MOT without them

 

if your sure ill defo leave them out! im missing one anyway and cant be bothered paying more money for a part i dont even want. sell the other one on flebay

 

Mine does

 

does yours have Hid lights though? only 2004+ cars have them dont they

 

Peter, Hyper has a Japanese Import car, which doesn't have the headlight washers as standard, as do all European sourced cars.

You can remove them IIRC, you can try using the search function to find out how.

Here's an example: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...0&#entry8838550

 

They are Bi xenon lights not ebay HID lights.

Ive taken my washers off, they looked ugly and I never used them, passed the MOT with flying colours.
