    There's no reason for that to be a 10 minute video lol. Show the product, show how it installs, show the spray. It's like they let just about anyone post to youtube nowadays :rolleyes:

    true, what i found interesting was how some cheap Dorman replacement was adjustable (the spray angle) with an included adjustment 'tool'. Anyway, ugly as sin but might give it a try next if the 2nd gen don't work out.

    That's a pretty impressive spread they've got going on! I'm told mine will be arriving today for the sienna. Now if I could just find my dang keys so I could check the mail box... Or, like, lock my house

    So the 2nd gen sprayers (85381-04040) are like the others, fan yes but the angle is 'off'. A lot ends up at the base. What is interesting is that in 2016 (earlier for the Camry), there are different part#s for the nozzles with a degree change. Take a look (this is for the 2016 Tacoma - scroll towards the bottom)

    https://parts.camelbacktoyota.com/parts/2016/Toyota/Tacoma/TRD Off-Road/index.cfm?siteid=214329


    The search continues... so far those Dorman look like a better choice simply because you can 'adjust' the fan angle. :rofl:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    EDIT: sorry, that link is bad. Part#s

    8538130220 || 0 degrees

    8538130230 || -2 degrees

    8538130240 || +2 degrees

    NOTE: Part number for Left and Right are same

    Is anyone who has "upgraded" willing to drop one of their old OEM nozzles in an envelope and mail it to me?

    You can aim the stock nozzles. Get a needle or small paperclip, stick it in the hole, aim, test, repeat.

    The Honda ones in my opinion are the best. Still adjustable and more of a fan spray. Not sure which model has this exact one but I have similar ones on my 4Runner and they work great.

    Yes, they are on my 85. It's a fan spray but not like the new mist styles, more like putting you thumb over the garden hose nozzle type of fan. I'll post a GIF of the spray.

    I think it was from a 04 Lexus ES 330. It's the same as the black one to the right but color matched.

    have no idea - haven't found the time to ask gunny or call up the local parts dept. the degree variance could be in ??? direction - have no clue.

    Update on the Sienna nozzles. The spray pattern is awesome. It's just kinda low like someone had suggested before. And with the hose inlet pointing toward the front of the car rather than to the side or down, it doesn't clear the hole on the underside of the hood. If it sprayed in an appropriate height, I'd make a cut with a Dremel to make it fit so it can push those last 2-3mm in to click into place. But I don't think that'd help. Meh.

    I was thinking if I too the gasket off and found some sort of wedge shaped one that could fit, it would angle it up just a couple degrees which would be perfect. Maybe I should just hit the hood with a hammer in front of the nozzle the angle it appropriately? Haha
