Default Always learning...

The other night while at a cruise-in a guy informed me that my car was the first one he'd seen with the optional headlight washers. This was new to me, I had seen the squirt nozzles but didn't know it was an 'option'. The lights were down but he could tell from the washer pump with the five plumbing lines. (Again news to me - I've never really paid any attention to them. I know they don't work because I don't have the water bag.)
Still I thought it was cool that he called it to my attention and I learned something. I've attached a picture showing the pump - so now you know.

They weren't an option. Standard equipment for several years.

I agree Mike as I didn't see any 'headlight washer' listed on my Build sheet. I'm not sure how effective they would be anyway. Like I said 'always learning'...
