1. turn your headlights on manually
2. wash your windshield

You'll see the sprayers misting your headlights.

Wish there was a separate switch for them. They can be useful in the Winter with slush and roadsalt accumulating on the front of the car.

Here's what they look like in action. Took me quite a few attempts to get this shot, as I had to activate the camera remotely whilst in the driver's seat...

Very INTERESTING, if you look at the photo carefully - you will notice from your picture that the spray rotates counter-clockwise. In the northern hemisphere, it should rotate clockwise as per the rotation of the Earth. Can anyone living in the North duplicate this effort to confirm my theory?
