289 Windscreen Sprayer Jet

I could not find that they were still made or reproduced. I found units made from stainless steel that had what looked like the correct shape/screw spacing but used a currently produced nozzle mounted to it. Nice but didn't have the right look to me.
Some confusion online about Trico and Lucas units but the correct parts were made by Lucas. They were used on a number of cars at the time besides Cobra. Some Morgans used them and I think the Diamler Dart as well. I was also told Lotus used them but I couldn't confirm that. Morgans used one, mounted in the middle. It wasn't used on all Morgans though.
I'm interested to see what Nick's working on. (hint, hint) Like a photo!

The correct Lucas part for the leafspring cars was available with two spray holes or one. Both look the same (apart from an extra hole!), but as far as I know the single hole is correct for the AC.

I spoke to Bryan a while ago about these. IIRC he only had the double-nozzle type left. He only has used parts, these jets are n/a now and not reproduced.
