[Mk2] [Generic] Improved Washer Jets - Good news for this damm weather

Post by gtech »

Just replaced the standard crap washer jets on the MR2 that just shoot out two fine streams .......useless, so just replaced them with the jets from the new Yaris, that give a FAN (arc) type spray which covers about 80% of the windscreen when you hit the washer button.

Made an enormous difference in this weather.

Part number: 85381 - 52250 and you need two of them.

2 min job to take the old one's out and put the new ones in.

if JEFF from FLASHMETAL sees this, then it might be a worthwhile stock item for you.

Winging their way here ...... Constant tension through 1000's of contact points with the screen as opposed to the normal 7 or 8 contact points.

Worth a try as MR2 wipers have always been a problem over 60

Just wish I could find some hooked 'UK style' arms to fit to my Import as I already have the Aero blades(which dont fit) ...and I'll be laughing..

Seem to be gold dust for some reason?

Are these Yaris ones a direct replacement in terms of fit for the standard MR2 ones then or are some bodywork mods needed?
