    Default Headlamp washers?

    Were these available as an option with Novas? Or is the deep blue Nova i've seen with them aftermarket jobbie? (The Nova in question by the way is a stunner. Well done to the owner!)

    They were available on early Nova's and were built into some overiders that attached to the bumper, iirc, but I've never seen any for real

    Look at a Mk1 Astra GTE, same setup as used on them.

    I don't so much like the standard ones tbh, I think they poke up too high. I've got half an eye out to find some alternative, more discreet items.

    So fitting them just requires you putting holes in the bumper at the correct points and then connecting them up?

    I think that looks very smart. But then it might just be the rest of the car doing that. Were the line up holes already behind the grille?
