Type and location of windscreen washers

Don't have a picture of what you mean? I've no mental picture of this.

Stephen,

From my experience, windscreen washers on a Cobra are a waste of time. When you use them with top off, you just get wet. Get rid of the bag altogether and use Rainex on your screen. That's my 2 bob's worth.

Haha, I had them installed and up and running until I took the car to the shop for paint and the car looked silly with wipers to me. I hoped to retain a little less civilized appearance plus I live where there are about 8 sunny months a year. I won't intentionally drive in the rain anyhow.

Last year my 16 year old son Preston and I travelled in the Beast on a 1700 miles roundtrip to and around the Grand Canyon. Got caught in a huge rainstorm between Kingman and Bakersfiled on the way back but at the 75mph+ highway speeds in that area it all flew over our heads as it ran off the windshield and we stayed dry through it all....would have been a bummer to have had to pull over for any reason or travel through a town...but I intend to get a waterproof cover for just such occasions - my high dual rollbar would keep it over our heads and we could wait it out...I hope

Regards!

Wow - that certainly looks good

I hadn't ever considered going to that much trouble for a washer bottle

Not the kind of thing for a custom engine bay. I've mounted mine in the space between passenger foot box and inner guard. It's actually a Honda Civic bag - smaller than Ford's.
