Heidfirst Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 well, they heat the nozzles so that they don't freeze. you can buy the heated mist nozzles for about £13 delivered (there is a link on here somewhere). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preee Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Yes its just the nozzles that heat , so when really cold the water can still freeze in the pipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickG Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 JW Racing is back to £24 a pair now :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Even with my heated ones I find that if its cold, the heated ones arent going to help until the engine bay heats sufficiently to melt the ice. I was hoping to get some, but will keep an eye out for cheapers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heidfirst Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Even with my heated ones I find that if its cold, the heated ones arent going to help until the engine bay heats sufficiently to melt the ice. you need more/better screenwash solution.

Gavc Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 £24?!!!! Glad I got mine when I did, £13 with delivery. Obviously selling well so they've bumped the price up!! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I tend to leave mine diluted, then get caught out :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 do you mind sharing that link? I am half tempted to pick myself up a pair at that price (as long as they are heated that is!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
