rear jet wash

[PugRory]

How easy is it to remove completely?? it doesn't work and I've found I don't need it so it'll be getting de-wipered too and I have a basic spoiler i'm going to put on using tiger seal

Not sure how easy it is to remove the entire tubing to the rear of the car, but if you can't, then bung it off tightly and properly somehow.
You can elect to just not turn the stalk for rear washers, however what you will find is that if you leave the car sitting and the front washers block it will have nowhere to go but into the boot, which is what someone had done on an old 306 I had, blocking it with a tissue...

What do you call a basic spoiler? The standard phase 3 ones have a cut-out for the washer jet anyway.

Think the one i have is off the phase2 GTI or XSI, just the small black spoiler that come stock, it doesnt have the groove for a jet wash unfortuntely

Ah ok! thanks for the help, probably just do something with the tube then, will probably be easier than trying to remove the tube completely, or i can try and unblock it? somehow...

I would imagine that the tube goes along the edge of the roof and then down the a-pillar perhaps...might be ok to unclip and pull through.
I'm just saying that the fluid feed to the rear jet needs to be properly enclosed as if the front washers block and it has nowhere to go that's where it'll come out, so don't just leave it.

Just get a phase 3 spoiler. I have messed around with fitting a phase 2 one and it doesnt work. The phase 3 has the hole for the jet and a phase 3 boot lid already has the holes half done!

oh right ok, sounds simpler!
