i wonder if anyone can help me. When i bought my 1990 S3 i saw that there is a hole just infront of each headlamp. I see in my Steve Heath "The TVR S series" i can not find info about headlampwash or powerwash. Was this an option that nobody bothers about.
i haven't seen a wash system fitted to a S3

Not an option to my knowledge. Was thinking of doing the same to mine but when I got the small washer jets through from fleabay they looked just a tad bling. Mebbies a couple of discreet black numbers will suffice.

mine (1990 S3C) has got wash but no wipe...
In fact there is no hose, no pump connected - it does not seem to have worked properly.

This is the best photo I have

thanks jens,
i think i will just fill the holes in the bonnetbiggrin It'll be a lot easier than trying to find the parts and install a system. I still have 4 jobs to sort out: 1 heater blower 2 cigarette lighter 3 electric mirrors and 4 the striker plate on the driver's door.

My S2 had it factory fitted, the bottle and pump were mounted on the cross beam infront of the water pump. I removed it as it always leaked and there was not enough power in it to wash the lights anyway.
