Look at this...



The question is, I pull forward for the headlight wipers, but I have no headlight wipers, nor can I find a place for them, or where they once were. What gives???

They are for the headlight washers. The 4 littlte black things on the bumper and if the line is still connected they squirt out very quickly. No need for the blades. Just really for the purpose of snow build up in the winter ofr for the summer when the dirt is on the lenses. Just get a paper towel to dry them off. Thats all

Well they're not actually wipers but two jets on each side that spray the lights. You don't have them...??

The answer is, it'* for your headlamp _washers_, not wipers. The answer is in that little T-shaped spritzy icon within the outline of the headlamp.

Pull it towards you while the car is on and you should get a short squirt on the headlamps from four jets mounted in the top side of the front bumper cover.

I take it the car didn't come with an owner'* manual...?
