Ok, here's the deal. My car came from the factory with headlight washers. For those unfamiliar with these, they're basically windsheild washers that spray a HIGH PRESSURE stream at the headlights to blast off any dirt on the lenses for clear driving. Due to some recent bodywork I no longer have any way of mounting the factory washer nozzles, and thus essentially have a 1/4" hose dumping this water on the ground when I run the pump.
To give you an idea of the pressure this thing puts out...I used to have a rubber cap on this line (a simple rubber cap from autozone), and when I accidentially hit the switch one time (forgot to unplug pump), the water pressure blew out the end of the rubber cap. It didn't push it off the line, but actually blew out the end of the cap.
Anyways, my goal to utilize the untapped power of the car is to add some type of nozzle system to spray a small stream of water 10-20' off the front of the car. The idea is to make the car 'spit' at stoplights, etc. (should be real fun at crosswalks). So where would you reccomend going to look for a nozzle small enough to get this kind of distance out of the line? Right now I have essentially a 1/4" hose to the front of the car & need some method of adding this nozzle system to it.
