.. you have the driver window open cause it was nice as ***** outside today.. and you go to wash the windshield, and then you get washer fluid dribbling all over your left arm and the door! Today was an unpleasant reminder of this quirk of last summer when I first got my car.

Yup, that's why I carry a traveler's pack of Kleenex in the glove box.

Travel pack?

Heck, when I go to any fast food place (McD's, Burger King, Wendy's, etc.) I take a huge wad of tissues. And I eat at fast food places a lot. Let's just say that I never run out of tissues.

My friend turned the spray nozzles around on his Civic, and sprays people that way. It is really funny, and the sprayers have some serious distance.

I have one of mine turned to the side so I can spray people next to me and the other centered on the windshiled so it still cleans if I need it
I had an extra output on my keyless entry I put in so I wired it up to spray with my remote so now I can do it to people walking by my car in parking lots or wherever =)

Aren't you afraid that your victims will take it out on your car?

The worst is...

..when you have just washed your car and your driving down the highway in the fast lane and the a$$ in front of you washes HIS windshield and the overspray gets all over your nicely washed Maxima. That's a real kick in the you know what.

that really pisses me off also..... I don't tailgate, but it seems like sometimes people see that you have a clean car and do it on purpose

Craig B

hey, Craig B, how did you do that pic in your sig? Is it just a picture of a moving background and then your car imposed over it with blur, or what? I really like it.

That is funny. It is a good idea when you get pissed off at the tailgaters behind you.

Nick- I took a pic of my car - (http://www.geocities.com/bracecraig/...ew/craigb1.jpg I think) and then photoshopped the background
it looks best if you can get a colorful background like tress or lights or something
I outlined the car and then invert selection so everything BUT the car is highlighted
motion blur the whole background and make the angle match your car
then highlight each of the wheels and circular blur on them
and VIOLA!

dmb and costco - It requires 2 relays; one is needed to give power to the wiper system since its normally only one with ignition and the other is to increase the ground output to the washer sprayer signal (the alarm output gave a ground signal but it wasn't strong enough by itself)

as far as wire colors and stuff like that go, I can't tell you since it's different for your car and I don't know how hard it would be to work off your stock alarm (I had to install my keyless entry myself since 3rds gens dont come with them)
if you want more details, email me craigbrace@hotmail.com
