Hey, can anyone tell me how to replace headlamp washers? Also one more thing
is that right before I bought the '97 A4, one of the washers were stolen. So where
might I buy one?
Some one please let me know!! The holes in my bumpers are driving me crazyyy!!

 

You have to take the bumper off to replace the washer, and the caps that go on top where you see the holes is probably a dealer only part. Shouldnt be too expensive.. If i were you id just disconnect the headlight washers and just get the cap and glue it on. They arent a necessity and you probably wont miss them too much. Not worth the money if you ask me..

 

Thanks!! Any idea where I can buy the caps other than the dealer? Maybe an online shop or something?

 

caps are definetly cheap enough from the dealer but they come primed so you would have to get them painted

 

Why would someone steal the washers? Can't be worth all that much.

 

ahahahahahah they slote the washers... I cannot believe it... ahahahhahaha

I have a washer i can give you for free if you want, ahahahhaha

 

...as amusing it might be...[:'(]...anywho...that's what the guy selling the car told
me. For all i know, he probably had a small accident, repaired the bumper but
never got those fixed. Paint job can do, but I guess I'll have to go and order the
damned caps...!
And you know what the **** off is?? Carfax gave the most perfect record for it,
although my mechanic told me that it DEFINITLY had a front end collision!
Bastards!

 

if t hey paid to have it fixed and didnt go through insurance etc carfax wont list it. It wont list accidents all the time anyway, depends on the insurance company.

 

good point

 

stolen headlight washer caps aren't uncommon...they pop off sometimes too (which is why they're stolen so much, it's a vicious cycle)...anyway, your best bet is probably to get some primered caps and a spray can of your color from the dealership...the clear coat you can get anywhere, it's probably cheaper at a hardware store
