Thanks for the information on the washer nozzle upgrade. I installed the

$16 honda 76810-tk8-a01 windshield washer nozzle assembly

honda 76810-tk8-a01 today. These are the ones that Toyota should have installed from the factory. With the spray

Thanks for the info I installed mine today . What a fantastic improvement. These are the ones Toyota should have installed from the factory. Frank

 

I agree WHAT a difference and so easy to do

 

I too did it a week ago, PHENOMENAL improvement!

 

Got to bump this thread because these nozzels are so fantastic,
Stock nozzels are junk compared to the Honda and they are plug and play.
Should be on every tacoma list to do in 5 minutes.

 

I keep meaning to get a pair. I’m setting a reminder for payday.

 

I've got mine on the way from Amazon. Should be here in a couple days.

 

Installed mine a few weeks ago, adjusted and work great. Only drawback I find is that they leak a touch on the hood.

 

Not mine, maybe you need new hoses

 

Mine are still slaying it. Couldn’t be more pleased!

 

Thanks for the reminder. Ordering now.

Just in time because the upper nozzle of my driver's side seems to be hogging all the juice. It unloads about a gallon of fluid compared to the other three that barely trickle out.

Will report back with my experience.

 

Those are the Ford nozzles or RAV4's?

 

Honda nozzels

 

I bought the Ford set listed earlier in the thread, the fan spray is better but only hits about 1/4 of the way up the windshield. The Honda set is better, right? Have em in my Amazon cart

 

Yes, these are adjustable up/down/left/right. It's only a single fan spray but the coverage is better than stock.

 

I just installed Odyssey nozzles. They can be adjusted all the way up and down. From the bottom of the windshield all the way up to the roof. They fit into original holes like a direct replacement.

 

Just installed the Odyssey sprayers. Great upgrade. I love how you can adjust them left/right and up/down. They're perfectly dialed in on my windshield now and the dual fan sprays cover the entire windshield. They definitely do not have the same velocity as the OEM ones so I'll be interested to see how they perform in wintry/mountain highway conditions.

Things of note that might help:

The barbs are positioned at the 12 and 6 o'clock positions. Take a flat head screw driver and gently pry one of the barbs back to slip the nozzle through the hood. If your OEM ones are anything like mine, they'll disintegrate into pixie dust as soon as you touch them.

I also had to use a little bit of heat (bic lighter) to get the passenger side supply hose off the OEM nozzle port. My hoses definitely show a lot of age. Be careful. Lastly I had to use a pick tool to get the old port out of the hose after the nozzle grenaded.

The Odyssey nozzles come with a gasket that sits between your hood and the nozzle. No need to reuse the OEM ones. However the OEM ones would have fit nicely. So check to see if whatever nozzles you buy comes with the gaskets. If not be sure to save and reuse the OEM ones.

They definitely have a significantly higher profile than OEM but a smaller base so it will show a funky paint border:

But it's okay, you do not see the nozzles when you are in the driving position:

Here is with both Odyssey nozzles on and adjusted:

 

Thank you so much for this

 

I am absolutely amazed how plastic an rubber holds on my Tacoma (1995). I had no problems like that at all. All hoses are soft, no cracks and elastic. Plastic is still springy (not brittle). And that truck spend 21 years in California sun.

Regarding the nozzle size I did not even notice that, but my Tacoma is white so the stain was not visible.

 

Didn't really think about my sprayers until I stumbled on this thread. Bought the Honda sprayers previously mentioned and they really are plug and play. You do have to aim them though, they spray below the wiper blades in their default position. It did take me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out how to aim them, but you can get them really dialed in, and the fan spray is much nicer than the squirt guns the truck comes with.

Good find!

 

Are you guys getting washer fluid on the hood from the odyssey nozzles?
