Headlight Washer 1986 930

j8tg · 09-12-2008, 04:37 PM

In the process of repainting chips on the front bumper and replacing the washer for the headlight I ran into a parts guide that states the teardrop style washer was not used on the 1986 and the factory had changed to the round style. Anyone out there with an 86 have the teardrop style?

Mine's an 86 US car (WP0JB0934GS050071) with these washers ...

I presume this is teardrop style.

I think they changed over to the flush teardrop style headlight washers midway through 1979.
So from '80 on they are all teardrop ones if you still have the origonal bumpers on the car.

Last time I was in as SilverStar recyclers, they had an 86 in there they were parting out. You might give them a call if you're looking for one.

I have an 80 and they were still using those monster squirters that were about 2 inches off the bumper..... not at all like my 86
