Installed fan jets for the windscreen, all they need is a light sanding/filing to make them narrower and the clip straight in.
They are of a Peugeot and the ebay ad was FRONT WINDSCREEN MIST TYPE SPRAYER WASHER JETS X 2 FOR PEUGEOT 206 6438E6 6438E6 is the part number for them, 10 minute job.

I trimmed and fitted Honda civic aerial an also tried to fit a set of the above washer jets but the hose connections are the wrong way round! Am I being thick or have I ordered the wrong ones?!

It's ok i just checked mine are the same they do fit just wiggle the hose over the nipple on the jet, if you need more slack slide the solid tube through the zipties/holders mine were dead simple to do.

I'd' be checking the volt meter first mate, that is not normal... :s
12-13 not running(12 +maybe (1v) surface charge)

13.8-14.4v when running.
