I think your all funhouse mad with spending the extra mullah on a 3 way nozzle, but thats your cash. _________________ Although I got a funny message from the Porsche guys, it read, "what a mighty ship that you must sail"

my 2-way windshield washer nozzles finally arrived from Germany. They look like a perfect stock replacement and fit, plug and play. The metal hole behind the stock triangular nozzle is small and rounded so they will work great. I will upload more pics after installation, hopefully this weekend.

That part looks right- much nicer than the smart nozzles.
Now we just need to figure out what car it came off of. |

about to find out but clearly a german car
I thought they were stock Southafrican nozzles based on this post below earlier in this thread but I have another lead

Those look like my three ways.
Where did you order them from?
I am ordering from Germany on a regular basis.
They may be NOS SA parts. |

Got the Pelican 2 way nozzle but while removing the old nozzle on the psassenger side the hose slipped inside the body. Any ideas on extraction? It doesn't look easy...
TIA |

Right or left?
The right you can fish back via the glove box. You may need to take out the glove box for the right side. At least that is what I recall.
Left, well...ah, gee....good luck? _________________ "Use the SEARCH, Luke" But first visit the Vanagon FAQ!
