Headlight Squirter
 
My passenger headlight squirter is in backwards. I was cleaning the front bumper and the cap to the headlight squirter came off. Didn't even know it had one. Upon futher inspection, when it squirts the passenger side squirter squirts the ground and not the headlight. I used a pliers to turn the nozzles to aim at the headlight, but couldn't get it to spray,-off angle. So I took the drivers side squirter off to see the angle of the nozzle and it looks like the passenger side squirter is installed facing backwards instead of at the light. My question is-- Is it possible to turn the squirter around? Not the nozzles, i know i can position them. The whole squirter that pops up is what i need to know. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated. Did a search of only this sight so far. A diagram or anything.

It sounds like the one is mounted backwards. Remove the screws holding it on and flip it around. The bottom can be rotated to line up the inlet on the washer cylinder to the line.

RE: Headlight Squirter, Does the bumper have to come off in order to service this part?
 
Hey thanks alot for the information. This helps me immensly. I thought if i twisted hard enough that it would turn, thank god i didn't do that. The picture says a thousand words. One more question. Does the bumper have to come off in order to service this part? Just looking for a quick answer. I haven't looked under the bumper to see if i had enough room to operate. Hey thanks again guys.

Great Idea SmokeU. Maybe it can be the next ultimate mod. What about a spark to ignite some flameable liquid that would shoot out of these nozzles. It could debadge anycar within seconds. Anybody want to debage their cars? Thanks for all the info. Now to fix it.

Actually if you want to spray the car in front of you just pull the cylinder out of the housing. It will shoot a garden hose type steam out about 10ft up in the air and 10ft out in front of the car.

In most cases you can access the bolts for the headlamp washer, but its much easier to just remove the bumper.
