Asinine Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 I know a couple of you fine fellows have swapped in X70 windshield washer jets onto their 850s. I believe it has a higher profile on the hood, but a MUCH better spray.Anyhow know the part #, or anyone with the part # bible able to let me know.Seems like an inexpensive and desirable christmas list item.Thanks in advance!

brick-a-brac Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Seems like an inexpensive and desirable christmas list item.Looks better, too. And if you live in an area where they use salt on the roads in winter, you'll love the fan spray pattern.Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figawi Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 one of my 850s has them and i dont think they make taht much of a difference but again its onl $18 to do it so if you 850 ones suck then go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asinine Posted November 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Yeah, i have a feeling they will make a big difference!!Although, i find the whole wiper assembly is crap on these cars. My '94 lefts a big chunk of the drivers side un-cleared. My '97 isn't as bad, but still leaves some room for improvment.I understand i might need a new wiper arm... crapperz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UberV70 Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 when you say X70 do you mean any kind of P1 70 series? Cause if thats the case then i think my jets blow jerk and i dont know why anyone would want them.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorb850 Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 when you say X70 do you mean any kind of P1 70 series?No its just the '99 and newer Volvos that have the better spray pattern....nice upgrade from the stock jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volvoson Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 I'm really debating whether or not I want to fill mine during the repaint.God forbid you ever drive through rain... Or would you somehow route them out the back of the hood right by the wipers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
