wasserkuhl Posted 10June, 2013 Report Share Posted 10June, 2013 Do you mean the 'Periscope' type as below? If so they are NLA and are extremely rare. I have a spare set but I would not let them go for < $500 for the pair. Friesinger Motorsport in germany can supply you with a used set for EUR$400.00(I am not Joking) *Edit* Heres a SH Set from Germany fleabay a touch cheaper http://www.ebay.de/itm/PORSCHE-911-Spritzdusen-CARRERA-Scheinwerferreinigung-headlight-washer-nozzle-/121119151660?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item1c3343962c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted 10June, 2013 Report Share Posted 10June, 2013 Time for the after-market suppliers to kick in on that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doish13 Posted 10June, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 10June, 2013 What the? When I told the formally known as Alcoholic now known as BenC3 I was going to pinch his set yesterday I was kidding.... Now I'm thinking its not so funny after all. That is ridiculous as a set for the 79 onwards model is $14 USD for a brand new OEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasserkuhl Posted 11June, 2013 Report Share Posted 11June, 2013 I am not having a Laugh. I swore outloud whn I got the email back from Freisinger in Germany. I spent 18 Mths to find 2 Sets to get one good set and then another 12 Months to get a spare set. Your options are as follows : 1) Get a later model bumper with the later small nipple washers/ Holes in situ 2) Weld up the (Aluminium) holes in your current bumper and repaint etc..... 3) Pay the stupid money for the Sets that are available. 4) Get on as many forums as possible and lurk around the for sale and wanted ads until you can jag a set (this is what I did) In hindsight I don't think I'd even want to sell my spare set considering how long it took me to get them!!!

tobsam Posted 28March, 2014 Report Share Posted 28March, 2014 Well that didn't take long at all. I have now sold one set of my periscope washer jets to a forum member who sent me a pm within minutes of my post. I was surprised at the amount of PMs and interest I received from people wanting a set. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
