Hi guys, I've been looking into alternative 'mist style' washer jets for the Megane 2 for a while now. Admittedly, investing far too much time and effort into such a menial problem, but it was something that bugged me about the car. There are numerous threads dotted around on different sites, but none of which came up with a solution without bodging something on. Firstly, I started looking at Laguna washer jets. In comparison to the standards, you can see they are wildly different, with no way in hell that they are going to fit without some serious modification. The bonnet stay was a little too short... The Laguna washers were tested. They provided a good mist spray pattern don't get me wrong, but there was no way they were going to fit without using silicone sealer to attach them to the underside of the bonnet. Queue stumbling across this last week.. It belongs to a Kangoo II, and is the same fitment as the Megane jet, but also the mist spray pattern.. I couldn't tell from the eBay photo for sure if it was a mist spray pattern or not, but decided it was worth a stab. (The above pictures are mine). It arrived earlier today, so I wanted to get it fitted and give it a little test. Looked promising! New jet fitted: And a quick little comparison of the spray patterns! Before: After: Hope this helps anyone wanting to get rid of the standard washer jets. (In the GIF, the spray on the mist is way too low, hence the massive amount of overspray that goes up the windscreen, this needed to be adjusted to get a better spray, this also gave more clearance of the wiper arms). The direct replacement jets are from a Renault Kangoo II, part number: 82 00 600 847 at an extortionate price of £36 according to Ads @ Renault Wolverhampton. (I got one for a fiver, so get yourselves down the breakers!). (Googling the part number shows it on a number of Russian websites (Google images too), looks like someone found it wayyyyy before, it just didn't show up in any search results when looking for washer jets for the Megane). Cheers! (I'm sad, I know)
i dont you sad sad sad sad sad man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (im getting some for the clio x)
Still an insane price for washer jets! Shame there isn't an alternative really. Clio II mist jets can be had for what, £6? Crazy.
Be cheaper to rent a kangoo van for the day and swap them over lol (not that I would go to that trouble over washer jets lol)
As they say on Dragons Den, I'm out! That's a ridiculous price for washer jets, are they gold plated or something?!
I've found them here http://www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk/renault/renault-8200600847-jet-wash/ for £7.22 ex VAT? Paul
New part number is: 289308179R old number = old price. New number = new price (still same part but cost much more when have old number...)
