Default Wipers w/ fluid jets

I recently had a new pteazer cowl induction hood put on my cruiser and now I have no outlets for my windshield wiper jets. [:I]

Now I've heard I should be able to find a car manufacturer that has the same length wiper arms (w fluid jets) and purchase replacement arms for "x" car and use them and just point my existing tubes onto the wipers and the wipers will shoot the fluid onto the windshield.

Anyone run across these or had run into similiar issues with a new hood? I've checked out googling for answers and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one with this issue. What are others doing with new hoods that don't have a place for their wiper jets?

Yeah you need to go either to a junkyard or to a GM dealer. The jets from a cavalier/sunfire or many other GM models will just clip/adhere on to your existing wiper arms. If i ever get around to shaving the emblem and jets that is what i will do.

Even before I got my new hood I moved the sprayers under the hood as in the pic below. I got tired of the sprayers dribbling on the hood. The sprayers have position adjustment on the sprayers...

Trying to remember which car I had, but it was not a GM - same thing, the washer nozzles clipped onto the wiper arms. A trip to a junkyard and some walking around is all that's needed. Just measure PT wiper arm width so you get ones that fit. [?]

Did you pick them up somewhere or were they the stock ones? I think your option is probably my best bet. Was it fairly easy?

King, what I did with mine are mounted 1 set on the hood, wire lights into Parking lights with a master control switch in the console and a relay setup that will allow me to decide if i want them on when the parking lites are on. I also have them wired into the corresponding turn signals. So with parking lights on I can have them on constantly or Off. Also I can enable them as turn signal indicators with the flip of a switch. Mine are blue (Highly Illegal). I have been looking for Amber/yellow and haven't found what i'm lookin for.(I digress)
Back to the topic the sprayers under the hood have the lights removed and are used as sprayers only.
