Hi... first of all.. welcome.
What are those headlamp washers for? I still doubt about the practicality of those washers..
Anyway.. that's the first time I've seen it on the Jazz.. nice find.. I am pretty sure is after market product a I don't recall seeing that as an accessory add-on.

I don't think those headlight washers will do anything other than moist them, unless they're really jet powered and can remove any of the more tougher dirt than just layer dirt.
I mean, you'll need those small wipers for it to be effective.

For some European cars such as Opel, Mercedes, BMW etc.. the Headlamp washers are part of the WINTER package. And comes standard with cars with HID lamps.
It is actually quite helpful in melting snow since heated water comes out of the jets. ALso, the water is pressurized and is much powerful than the standard windshield washers.
Anyway, it looks cool and unique to have one.

Now I know why I don't see them in Melbourne.. because we don't have snow here and that HID lamp is not an options in Australia... having said that, I don't recall seeing these washers on some of the beemers?

Yes, these washers are not in any brochure or option in Europe or wherever.. I think the owner of the car just put it in as decoration or something....

i think its a waste of money.. its not like ur gonna drive ur jazz like a 4wd and rampage it into a ditch of mud to get ur lights clogged. the only think that gets ur lights wet is rain, and because ur car lights are designed to be aerodynamic, hence whatever of a moist liquid substance you might have superimposed onto your light, it will come off(dry) when you are driving.

They are hidden. When they are squirting water, the jets pop out of the front bumper. I can't say that it's useful but I don't deny that it isn't either. The jets does pump out at a very powerful jet of water. It's not like the windscreen one.
