Hey

What are your thoughts on the windshield nozzle located below the hood instead of on top of it?

I think its kind of odd!

i think it is ideally located. for a person like me that constantly cleans my car, those nozzles under the hood makes wiping easier than ever.

i used to be one of the team member who install those washer nozzles and i think it looks clean hiding under the hood.

yeah it looks cleaner being hidden under the hood instead of on top...i guess it also keeps it from getting clogged when you clean or wax the car =)

its better for a cleaner look, plus it doesn't 'see' as much road debris, weather bombardment..

Definitely better than on hood. Looks cleaner.

i like it where it is. much cleaner.

Hmmm

It looks "clean"

BUT

what if that long part/gap gets clogged with snow when you're driving!?

What if? it's happened to me many times! In heavy Snow, the 2 nozels get covered in snow to the point where they stop working.

^^ geez...I hope you're not one of those cars we see driving down the road with 2-foot snow drifts on the hood, roof and trunk.

My windshield washer fluid is good down to -40C, it just melts right through....

Cadman1981 · 02-03-2009, 04:50 PM

hahaha no, i'm not one of those ppl, i park in a garage, so actually my car is the one you see with no snow on it! i meant more when in traffic, and it's snowing hard

as long as they're there and they work properly I could care less where they are placed

they're only windshield washer nozzles.

i agree, mine does that too as long as you don't let the snow accumulate over the nozzles too much you should be fine. when driving in heavy snow i'd would at least spray every once in a while to clear a path.
