There are 2 kits in Amazon: 1 for 97-99 (with a white orifice tube -

) and the other for 00-04 (with a yellow orifice tube -
click here click here
).

Yours is a 2000, so you need the second one with the yellow orifice tube.

Those amazon kits fail all the time. Amazon is good for wiper blades and headlight bulbs. I wouldn’t buy major components from them.
