Default HOW TO: RSX windshield washers onto 96-00 Civic

So you hate your weak stock washer nozzles that don't work? Put some RSX nozzles on that have the nice fan spray.

Parts:

(2) RSX windshield washer nozzles


011 76810-S6M-A02 NOZZLE ASSY., WASHER 2 2005 RSX 11.08 8.31



1. Pop the hood. Disconnect the hoses from the plastic split.

2. Squeeze the tabs on the sides of the stock washer nozzles.


3. Pull the nozzles and hoses through the hood.


4. Switch the hoses onto the RSX nozzles.


5. Pop the RSX nozzles into the hood and reconnect hoses.


Enjoy the new wide fan spray that actually cleans your windshield!!!one Combine with new wipers for best results.

IDK if I saw this on another website or it was another post, but it's a nice and cheap mod.

I vaguely remember this mod in another thread or forum and there was a problem with the spray operating efficiently at highway speed. I believe there was very little pressure when driving. Is this still the case?

I havent tried them over 45mph yet. The only minor problem is that the fan spray isnt perfectly even; there is a more fluid sprayed at the edges of the fan shape and less in the middle, but it still works much better than the stock ones.
