I'm not quite sure as I binned the receipts and got other parts at the same time.

Buying everything new from a dealer you're looking at about £200. The Kufatec wiring loom is pretty expensive.

I already had mouldings sprayed nup, and got the jets/pump on ebay.

If you can get the jets/mouldings/pump cheap, then you can drill your current bottle and just need ~2m of hose with some clips and do it for a lot less (plus the loom).
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Utterly tempting but still in two minds whether to keep the car medium-long term.

Can't justify £700+ on lights for a car that's dropping in value quite a bit  :scared:

Sorry for dragging this up, but I think I'm going to give up based on your thread.

Buying all the Xenons and looms was bad enough now all this washer stuff is driving me mental.

I might try sell my stuff and try get my money back from Kufatec and call it quits!

Nah it's actually very straight forward in hindsight, if you get the list of parts needed you can't go wrong.

Issues I had were due to the way the cables were routed (must've been an early setup) as I changed it with new hose/couplings and routed it the obvious way and thus no leaks.

Give it a bash  :happy2:
