Does anyone have the part number for the 405 spray bar?

Although the Citroen part is good, the top loopy bit seems very tricky to set up so that the water doesn't just hit the wiper arm and go no-where.

Also, there's a window washer kit (using the Citreon part) available from >elise-shop.com<. But it's still cheaper to get the pipe from B&Q and get the spray bar from the French manufacturer of your choice.

Cheers,

Ben

Peugeot part number 643861 (Bin A6C5), "SPRAYING RAMP*P4WT" £5.46 +VAT


this info was for 2004 though!

How handy.

Having just filled up my water bottle, for the first time since i cant remember, I thought I'd resurrect this thread for the benifit of all the new people on the site. I still maintain this is the best mod i've done and will pay for it's self in washer fluid in a couple of weeks at this time of year with all the grit on the roads.

This and changing the relay for less wipes after a spray (as well as variable intermittent)

I'm still using the Citroën spray bar and it's fine.

Reminds me of the fact that I have never needed to refill my washerbottle yet

Have had the car since 2004 so I guess our roads are pretty clean

I don't have this mod btw

Top resurrection if ever I've seen one. I'm off to Peugeot now...

Could be worth looking at the Honda CRV washer as it's spray jet has a wide Arc of about 60 degree. maybe able to be moded to fit the car

[Muncher]

Nick, I think it's just the design of the car that would make another jet type solution like that tricky. The angle is so acute and the washer jets are mounted on little stalks, nothing like I've seen on any other car. Very happy with mine still

Thought this would be a useful bump with all the roofless driving going on at the moment Did mine last year and can honestly say it's one of the most practical mods I've done Nick

I was thinking just last week how good the spray bar and relay mods are together!

Just fitted my spray bar..

What a massive difference! 7 little holes in the bar actually fire on to the windscreen with amazing force!

Excellent mod.. like what was said above.. doing this mod with the wiper relay has to be one of the most effective mods

The only problem i had was the washer bottle! It had old liquid in it and kept getting blocked so had to thoroughly rince the bottleout and remove the rubber bung that the motor sits in as all the gunk was round that..

As for the pipes.. i used everything that was supplied with the arm except one clip, i went to b&q and got the 3mm & 5mm pipe and also some hose couplers (Eliza Tinsley pack with a selection of different angles etc) pushed one end into the black pipe on the spray bar then the other end into the 3mm clear pipe (soaked in hot water first) then put 3mm pipe inside the 5mm pipe, then the 5mm pipe straight onto the motor! Job done and works spot on..



Hopefully on this years Euro road trip i will be able to remove flys with ease!

To anyone who hasnt doen this...DO IT!!

Cheers

It's the time of year again so I thought I bump it again for the new members

Top resurrection if ever I've seen one.

I said it then, and I'll say it now almost 1 year on. Top resurrection

After using about half a bottle of washer fluid clearing the winscreen my new VX, I went home and swaped this set up off my NA. Once again I can't belive how much better it is than std so I though I'd give the thread a bump

[luna_s]

i used the spray bar mod - worked great, but now i'm a big fan of the valeo vm15 wiper blade with inbuilt washer system

[Jase_MK]

My std nozzles are crap. I'm guessing though, as I have a Bosch Aero blade from a Passat instead of the normal wiper arm, this probably won't fit? Maybe I'll try and fab something up DIY stylee
