G'day,
I put a new windshield wiper cleaning fluid "can" on Double Trouble while I was in the USA. When I checked the wipers I noticed that
one of them was missing the outer spray nozzle and support.
If anyone has one they would let me buy, beg, borrow (permanently) or steal please let me know.
Here's a link to a photo that shows what I need.

Rob,
I think I came across a couple of those yesterday; I'll try to find them
again today & let you know.
By the way, after looking at your macerator slides, I looked at some of
your great adjacent postings. Good information, some of which I hadn't
looked at before.
You need to check your math on this slide:
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/aa-miscellaneous-photos/p40040-rear-height-adjustment-slot.html
IIRC, 11-11/16"-3-6/16" = 8-5/16", not 8-1/16"
Don't feel bad: My long-used, and widely disseminated at Patterson,
calculation yielded 8-7/16". ::-( I'm gonna attribute that number to
including a slight safety margin and continue using the "fancy" blocks I
made for front and rear use.

Ken,
Thanks for looking for the Lumina bits and I corrected the photo comment.
BTW Mrs. Gardener (my fifth grade teacher) would be aghast at my error! ;-)

Rob,
I found the nozzles today. I've got several of the nozzles from the very
end of the Lumina arm -- the 3/4" or so long section with the orifice, not
the plastic gadget -- I guess tube guide -- adjacent to it, which you have
circled also. At least one of them has a few inches of rubber tube
attached. Perhaps you don't need the "tube guide"?
I think I collected them with the idea of experimenting with spray-cooling
the radiator with the distilled water I can collect from my new HVAC --
didn't, & probably won't, happen.
Tell me the address to send it to if you want it.

Ken,
If you want just put it on top of your dresser and when you pack for the Rhine River Cruise toss it in your luggage. I'll pick it up
in Basel! :-)
If not please send it to:

No wonder you made the mistake if they delayed 3rd grade arithmetic to the
5th grade! :-)

You gotta be kidding me! I'll have to write myself a note to remember to
mail it tomorrow when I take the wiper kit orders to the post office! If I
don't forget them.
