Is there an earlier video showing where to get the plumbing parts and pump? I have a custom duct (same i/c) but could still make this work. Did you just wire in a push button to the cabin to activate it?

Parts are listed in the first video just opened the videos description tab, it’s all amazon sourced, I was going to wire it up to the washer plug….. but then thought it would be a great Arduino project , could program it to spray whenever surface temps reached whatever Setting

Pump…. This one’s cheap but works, it’s a bit on the loud side, I’m sure a better pump could be sourced

I like this idea more, you use your windshield washer stalk to trigger the sprayer lol

If you have the headlight washers, you could tap into that circuit on the stalk, to preserve the windshield washer function... Can't imagine there are many people who really use/need headlight washers on these car, but windshield washers do come in handy. :)
