I've never seen a bonny with this option before. where is the switch to use it, and how do you use it? How many bonnevilles actually had this? Interesting indeed.

I think only SSE and SSEi can have them. The bumper is different and has the sprayer outlets. I've only ever seen it on a 92 SSE, not on the 97 SE i drove, or the 93 SE i purchased.

I tend to forget that they're there, but in wintertime I use them a lot to keep dried road-salt spray off the lenses. Basically what happens at night is you'll be driving in traffic and the salty road spray cooks itself into a dry white coating on the headlamps, and your light output drops way down. I can actually see the light output increase as I squirt the headlamps while I'm driving. Kind of cool to see the cloud of spray in the edge of the headlamp beams...
Say, do yours spray continuously? Mine give me a one-second burst each time, but that'* all I get, even if I hold the trigger back. The service manual is vague (hey, there'* a surprise) on how they're supposed to work.
