Need windshield squirters w/ CF Hood

I'm trying to figure out how to get some windshield squirters on my car since I replaced my crunched factory hood w/ a CF one.
I no longer have the holes for the squirters and I'm wondering if anyone here has any ideas on how to get some squirters back on my car without drilling any holes in the hood.

i have one on mine... I used a single squirter from an old truck, it has a really wide spray angle, and I mounted it under the hood on the black plastic strip. it works fairly well, and its all but invisible. good luck man

Well, I'm moving back to Cali and I like to go to Tahoe to snowboard and you can't make it on I-80 without them, I tried once with a buddy when he ran out of fluid and it just sucked. We had to pull over and clean it by hand every so often.

I would worry about drilling a hole in the CF, because it might crack or spider web.

I made it last winter w/o squirters, although I had to pour my water bottle on the windshield a couple of times. Not recommended on the freeway.

i had the same problem till i rode in my buddies Cavalier. On a lot of vehicles, they have the wipers with the squrters on them. I went to a junkyard and pulled the hoseing and ends off a Cavalier for $2 and played with them on my car for about an hour. They work great and i only spent $2.

my friend took his sprayers and put them on the wipers and ran the wires stealth down into the hood compartment...cost about the same, $2 for glue and tape...either way its the better way to do it...custom and different

Drill holes in the hood and paint the sprayers black - they wont be that visible.

Sounds intresting, I also was thinking of using the squirters that go below/under the hood.

Check the squirters for a 99+ chevy Express van. They are flat and have a wide spray pattern and clip to the wiper arm. The van's window is freaking huge so they spray really far too. Couldnt be too much money new from teh dealer either.
