fun weekend project

Works damn good. Switch looks cool when it is lit up red while on.

Step 1: Parts: 1 12V washer pump, power wire, toggle switch of choice, tools, windshield washer nozzle, patience.

Step 2: Pop out one of the button fillers.

Step 3: Drill a hole in the button filler for the switch to go through, not too big though.

Step 4: Insert switch through the back and tighten down ring and smash washer.

Step 5: Run 2 wires down through the hole using a coat hanger. Screw one into metal as a ground. Loosen the 30A bus connection above the dead pedal and attach the other there. Insert switch into dash.

Step 6: Route the switched power wire through the grommet near the master cylinder. Run along edges of engine bay and through plastic headlight cover.

Step 7: Mount washer pump as shown and make appropiate fluid and electrical connections. You will have to take the bumper off to do this.

Step 8: Attach and aim windshield washer nozzle.
The switch I chose lights up red when on. Very nice. This project can be done for as little as $35 if you have speaker wire and connectors already and choose a cheaper switch.

I have two things to say about this mod. 1. don't try and run it at the dragstrip cause they will get pissed if you are leaking water on the track(I wonder how I found this out). 2. I have gained 15whp on my s4 on the dyno by spraying the intercoolers so I know it makes power!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it's illegal for NASA or SCCA meets also. Mostly for hot summer days. Plus I love the extra switch.

Did you notice the same gain with the uprated intercoolers?
