Trico vacuum washer system

[KevinW]

Now, I have finally got myself what I think are correct NOS Trico washer jets - they are a work of art compared to modern plastic tat, or even the reproduction items.

So, 427R guys, and originality aficionados.....

can you tell me the correct spacing for these with respect to distance apart, and more importantly, distance from the wiper box?

(yeah yeah, i know the S/C never had 'um, but as I have to fit a washer system for legal registration, and it rains here a lot, i went for a trico set up)

also, is there a good way of keeping the whole thing leak tight? I have to change the angle of the jet, and dont want to disturb anything till I have good information.


Just a note for anyone interested, but there seems to be quite a few of the correct size washer bottles coming up on ebay atm. Most have a totally incorrect cap (with a motor etc), but this is easily swapped for something correct (or very close) from one of the more common bottles that come up that are too tall.
