Window Washer Jets

Has anyone got a picture they could post on this thread to position the two window washer jets, I'm a bit nervous of drilling two holes in the wrong place on my 64 split camper when fitting the washer kit, many thanks Stephen.

Did your bus have washers originally? Does it need them? Possibly fit them in the vents at the top to save drilling? Just an idea

When I got my last bus, 15w with factory safaris, I had the same thoughts of fitting washer jets. In the end I figured I don't need them as they're not required for the mot and I'd clean it often anyway.
The bus i have now has washers and I've not used them once

For the amount of times you'll use them I personally wouldn't bother. For the mot you could just fit some pipes to the overhead peak with cable ties then have them rigged up to a squeezy bottle under the dash. Unless you have safari screens in which case just open them for the mot and you don't need washers at all.

Cheers, Lee.
