exact(ish) position of rear washer jet nozzle

Hello,

One of the mods i have done to my basic hardtop 90 is to fit a rear wipe and wash system, which didn't come fitted from factory. It's all complete at front, pump, pipe, dash / switch etc and tested, ready for drilling and fixing into the rear panel above the door. I'd like to follow the factory position for the jet / nozzle if possible, but I can't find it online. I'm guessing it's in the centre of the rear panel (width ways / horizontally), but I'm unsure how close it is from the rear gutter (height wise). I was surprised that there was no hole / grommet, like there was for the rear wiper motor in the back door. Anyone willing to do a quick measure up please?

On my Puma 90 it is central and the nozzle is only just 2mm maybe above the gutter, hope the pic helps

Thanks again Rob. 👍

Not sure if I need a new thread though?….. unusually, the flow is too strong (50 plus males 🤣) and the “squirt” hits between the rear wiper and the spare wheel! I’ve tried to adjust the jet “eyes” but they don’t seem to move. Any ideas please from you lot?

Did someone inadvertently sell me a front jet maybe? No idea really. 🤔

Get yourself a pin or needle, stick it in the hole and rotate the ball jets towards the window. Front windscreen squirters are about an inch and half longer. You’d know, as it won’t fit

Cheers, all sorted. I was surprised by how stiff the jets were to move - needed a good quality needle, a pin just bent.
