Headlamp washers?

Where are they located on new E class facelift? I can't see them

That car probably doesn't have the package. I think washers come with the lighting package. Not positive but I know my moms E350 doesn't have them and it lacks the lighting package.

I wouldn't worry about that "feature." MB makes sure it's almost always never used.

You don't get headlight wash unless you've used the windshield wash 10 (yes, that's T-E-N) times in a trip. Then you get a headlight wash.

I guess if you live in Seattle, it might kick in a couple times a year.

I occasionally think about retrofitting the Bi-Xenon lighting, but I have not fully researched what it would take to retrofit the headlight washing functionality back onto the car (mechanical, bumper cover, etc.), or if it would be a worthy challenge ()
