Looking at my trusty haynes manual (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) and on page 134 there is a section on headlamp cleaning systems and I quote:
" A headlamp cleaning system is available for later models, and is controlled from a rocker switch on the instrument panel. The water reservior is adjacent to the spare tire and has a capacity of 15 lmp pt/18 US pt (8.5 liters)" So does anyone have the system? |

It was a factory option for both early and late cars. I happened to find a new bumper cap with the holes and nozzles so; I used them for my car. Later, (1989) I met a guy named Jim Lapossa (sic) back east that had a ton of NOS parts including the headlight wash system and I was too cheap to spend the 300.00 he wanted for all of the parts. There is a crescent shaped water tank that goes in front of the spare tire well, relay near the gas tank and rocker switch on the dash.
