cool - what does the other end of the pipe connect to - does it just connect straight on pipe where one-way vale is?

How does pipe cope when wiper moving??

Thanks.

I've had systems like this in front wipers.

The pipe connects in the door space to the one way valve.

I adjusted the little jets so one shoots to just above the end of the blade and the other to the other end. Gives a great set of jets.

The pipe has enough curve to accommodate the sweep of the wiper.

I put a grommet in the hole in the door and used a plentiful amount silicone seal too. I can't see any flexing where the pipe goes through the door but I admit I am thinking of putting a plasticlamp at the spare wheel carrier just to make it 100% guaranteed stable.
