Title: Headlamp washer cover
Post by amigafan2003 on Oct 20th, 2009, 9:08pm
I know it's a long shot but does anyone have a passenger side headlamp washer cover?

pre-facelift or facelift. If facelift, squareish type or the one with a corner cut off type!!??

Thats one of the later facelift, early facelift ones had a cut off corner and the bend at an angle.  I have tried several times on here to get one and have just bought one from fords, only they have sent the wrong one, cost £75  :o :o but it will cover that bl---y hole.

Hi

I've got the early facelift headlamp washer for my car and I am currently looking for a replacement unit for the passenger side. I have taken a picture of it but not sure how to add this to the forum.

If someone has a headlamp washer (early facelift) then I am interested.

Cheers,

Mondeoman

I've got the whole headlamp washer unit for that car, sadly it's the wrong cover for mine.

Dealer has contacted Ford and both the Non Facelift and late Facelift headlamp washer units are available. The problem is mine is the early Facelift version which I am struggling to find on internet 2nd Hand (passenger side). Does anybody know someone who may be able to help?

are the early and later type interchangable?

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by mondeoman on Oct 31st, 2009, 7:17pm
Well I know for sure that the original and facelift (both types) are different due to the position of the screws.

It seems crazy that Ford abandon all us Scorpio owners when so many are still on the road

What is the number on the jet, as I had a early facelift and the later facelift and the number was the same.

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by tiff on Nov 3rd, 2009, 7:26pm
if you get stuck, there's someone that has a complete set (both types) for £35 delivered

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by amigafan2003 on Nov 6th, 2009, 9:20pm
Who would that be?  I'd be interested in the whole washer assembly as the bit the cover clips onto has snapped as well

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by mondeoman on Nov 7th, 2009, 7:47pm
I wish I'd know this sooner as I've been looking high and low for new headlamp washers.

Tiff can you please send me his details and I think I will get a spare set just in case I ever have problems.

Cheers,

I am pleased to say that my headlamp washers are now repaired and are working perfectly with the correct plastic covers fitted! ;D

I know some people sigh, but Spike has both types, and quoted me £35 a pair delivered

Post by mondeoman on Nov 14th, 2009, 8:11pm
I spoke to Spike recently and he did not have the passenger side early facelift unit. When did you speak to him?

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by tiff on Nov 17th, 2009, 9:59pm
heard back from him 3rd Nov

Title: Re: Headlamp washer cover
Post by mondeoman on Nov 17th, 2009, 10:08pm
Hmmmmm,

That will be around the sort of time I spoke to him. Perhaps he did not like the sound of my voice?

Have a good look at some of his listings. He tends to use 'archive' photos when it comes to under bonnet & interior pictures ( door shuts etc a different colour to the car ). Not really willing to say much more  :-X :-X :-X

I also am looking for a nearside cap such as the one in the above picture. I have the washer, just need the cap.

I suggest you buy a new unit from Ford before they run out of supplies
