Thread: Raised rectangle on 3Mps sports bumper

  1. Default Raised rectangle on 3Mps sports bumper

    Hey guys,

    I was looking at a gen 1 mps sports pack today and I was just wondering what the raised rectangle that is on the bumper just below the headlights?
    I thought it was a hid sprayer/cleaner as its only on the sports pack but it doesn't seem to be.

    It is a headlight washer indeed, only works when lights are on..

    Yup it does. When the lights are on, and you use the windscreen washers - every one in 2 times it will activate the headlight washers. Not sure if they do much though in my opinion

    Headlight washers are an ADR requirement on HID lights
    The purpose is to clean the headlight of dirt that can cause the light being projected to scatter and not have a sharp cut off line, potentially blinding other drivers at night

    Oh ok then, I always wondered why they only come on cars with HID's as standard.
    Thanks for letting me know.
