johnH Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 i personally think they are better then the originals, more of a spread on fluid. makes it more sudsy as well and cleans better. cant complain since they only cost £2 each! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank of fluid will last you longer too, since you don't need to use as much to clean the dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stef123 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I wonder if these are the same jets fitted to my mondeo. i have heated front jets but i cant remember what the spray is like I know the fluid lasts for aaaaaaaaaaaages though, i tried to empty it one night to see if the light on the dash worked but i got bored after about 5 mins of spraying and no sign of it looking at ford parts uk, it looks like this is what i have fitted.. http://www.fordpartsuk.com/shop/ford_mondeo_windscreen_washer_jet_heated_2078.htm given the difference in price im presuming they are different.

The ones you have listed their mate are different jets, they are the ones i have also removed from my focus, the jets you require are the heated type listed on page 1 of this guide, with a link to a Genuine Ford Dealer, their half the price of your listing and a direct replacement mate, Follow this guide will take less than 5minutes to do.B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted October 6, 2011 Author Share Posted October 6, 2011 im sure Lenny has some sort of connection to the suppliers of these washer jets.. Ow I Wish i had, :( and I wish I had connections with all the suppliers/sellers I recommend on this site, when I create a guide i always e-mail the sellers involved who supplied me the parts to inform them that i have hopefully brought them more business. I get plenty of thanks which is great, but I’ve yet to get anything in the post or bank account, perhaps a Christmas card is on its way.

I wonder if there are things we could do a group buy and get some discounts? obviously we would need a good interest in whatever it may be but it might work? things i have taken part in before have failed but when i used to do large scale R/C we had quite a few good results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These Jets May be a Good Group Purchase, I plan to purchase a non heated set of the Ford Mist Jets for a 2006 Nissan Almera so if anyone is thinking of grouping I’m in. Used to have a 1/6th Scale Nitro R/C Mitsubishi Lancer got 60Mph out of it, 2 speed gear box Raspy little thing till I wrote it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubb Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Just discovered this mod, knew that other makes and models could do this and always wondered with Fiestas. Does the inital post link still work? I only seem to be able to see the heated ones (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Ford-Focus-Mk4-2011-Onwards-Heated-Front-Washer-Jet-Spray-Type-x1-/220849176475?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item336ba2ff9b) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the inital post link still work? I only seem to be able to see the heated ones (http://www.ebay.co.u...=item336ba2ff9b) the seller that stocks the heated type will supply the non heated type on request, however they are both the same price and the headed ones will work 100% in a non heated fitment, so its up to you mate if you want to fit the heated type and snip the connectors off the rear of the jets, or order a set of non heated, if you are ordering a non heated set please quote the part number encase the accidently send you a set the same as what you currently have.B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cressws1 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Fitted these to my mk1 Focus today. Much better. What a brilliant little cheap modification this is. One quick question, Is it possible to adjust the spray direction on this type of jet? I used to adjust the normal ones by using a needle in the jet etc. The mist seems to hit my windscreen a bit low down thats all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
