I know exactly what you mean! Mine suck too! They have ever since I got my max when it only had 30K. My two other friends also have 4th gen max and they complain too. My friend's washer nozzles on his accord spreads nicely and evenly. Hell, I tried adjusting mine like a million times but that's of no use - still spray like ****.

I'm going to kick myself for mentioning this. But you can get that nice spray pattern from aftermarket nozzles, ie some of the lighted nozzles. You don't have to hook up the lights I guess.

Never ever put neon window washer nozzles on your car.

It is the same thing as this, and puts you into the same class of car enthusiasts, and people.

As many times as rice is brought up so people get a clue that neon and altezzas don't make your car better, just easier to laugh at, and they put you in the same "modding" catagory as this guy.

You can find another link here, I want some of those smilies at the bottom.

i'd never put led washers on my car, even if my stock ones didn't work at all, rather goto the gas station and clean the windows

+1

There is a new white BMW 3 series that drives around and has blue nozzles, if someone said that I could have that car to drive but the condition was that I couldn't remove the nozzles I would tell them to keep it.

To the other post about me posting this video (too many times) in two forums that deal with altezzas and neon; you are more than welcome to post links to video's that make fun of people that do "purposefull" mods. I would actually like to see if anyone could find a video that makes fun of someone putting a turbo on their car, or a Y-pipe.

My nozzles suck just as much. 4 streams of cleaner. Ive been wondering if i can put a pair of those nozzles from say a chevy malibu that are attached to the wipers and move with the blades really cleaning the window. Think its possible???

Wait...can one more person say that they have trouble with their spray nozzles? Cause I think that would really help everyone out.

If your nozzles are clogged with wax, as mine get after every waxing, grab a paperclip, unwrap it (so to speak) and use the tip of it to clean out the nozzle opening. This method can also be used to point them down a little bit, so that your fluid doesn't end up on the rear window (like my car). If the paperclip is too thick, grab a needle from a sewing kit.

Sweet I am going to try this, my nozzles work fine but I rarely use them other than to dush people who drive slow in the fast lane, now I can aim them to make them more efficeint.

Are you sure they're gay, or could they possibly be lesbian?

ok guys, i installed the LED washer nozzles. i had to adjust them a bit to get it right and didn't hook up the LED's. I realized i didn't like the way it shoots out. =) I like the ones VW and Honda has where it sprays all over. this one just squirts thin sprays


Can I buy a set at their dealership and install them into mine? AFter all it is universal correct?

Have any of you guys tried taking your nozzles out and soaking them in some hot soapy water. Then if you don't use the sprayers that often clean the resevior and fill with new washer fluid. If none of this works go buy some friggin rain-X.

Well i'm assuming if the oem nozzles are cleaned, it will still squirt, my question is if I can buy a set from VW or Honda and put it on my car, it should be universal right?

and no this thread doesn't suck because i started it. haha =)
