I do like those bonnet protectors - might invest in one before the gritters start to throw stones about!

Are the headlight washers standard or an option over there in Sweden?If an option, how much?

[Qash]

Headlight washers are standard on all versions of QQ in Sweden.

Believe I read somewhere that washers and LED Headlights don't go together, can't remember why.

[Qash]

It may be due to the LED does not develop as much heat and then dirt will not stick to the headlights in the same way. Here, however, we have more salt and sand on the roads in the winter so I'm guessing that Nissan Sweden decided to have them on all the cars. There may also be some requirements on all newer cars but I'm not sure. Even mud-flaps are standard on tekna, not sure about other QQ.

I believe that the same rules apply to LED lights that apply to Xenon/HID ones. That rule is that the lights or the car has to auto-level and the headlights must have power-washing.

UK cars with LED do not have power washing, the old model with Xenons did. We do not have this feature on our Tekna so is obviously not a requirement for UK.

We have gone of the subject but anyway here is my two penneth. F1 Bob I believe you are correct regarding the LED Power Washing we do not have this in Germany either on our Tekna and I think it is mentioned on the Forum somewhere that it is not a requirement. If it is of interest to follow this subject up please look under ""Electronic Systems " / "Bi-LED Headlamps". Dave ?Y??
