Prep for Painting



Thanks for the info.  I went ahead an ordered the 88 Scirocco nozzle from www.worldimpex.com, so I guess I'll find out if that's a good replacement for a 1987.  When it comes in I'll post to say if it works or not.  In the meantime I'll try my best to remove the stock nozzles without messing them up.  Last night it was really looking like a real challenge to take them off without breaking them, so I stepped away to re-think my attack plan.  The replacement nozzles will be a small insurance plan in case I break the existing ones.
   
  I'll go around and find the 3M adhesive remover and give that a shot.  Hopefully O'reillys or Advance Auto will have it.
   
  Thanks!
  Eric

Worldimpex invoices by the SKU number instead of the VW number, but it looks like the twin jet nozzle was the early Scirocco part 533 955 985 and it's pictured as a twin jet on their site. 
All I know is my 84 came with single jet nozzles and I thought it was a nice upgrade to find the twin jet ones.
$5.20 ea.  

Not confusing there - that's the same boat I was in, I upgraded my 84's single jet nozzles (p/n 533 955 985) to the later twin jet nozzles, (p/n 533 955 985 A) which were on A2 Golfs and Jettas through to 88 M/Y. 
 

  Also of interest is the later Scirocco (88) is the A2 pn 191 955 985A. Whether that means it'll fit in the early hoods is unclear.   

And I'm now more sure than I was the last time, the 88+ 191 955 985 A (and 986 A for heated) parts don't fit in the early Scirocco hoods.  Now, Etka says that from 88 on, Sciroccos had the 191 955 985 A sprayers.  But it doesn't differentiate the hood p/n, which isn't surprising.  Anybody with an 88 or higher want to check the p/n on their washer nozzles? :) 

So for an 85+ Scirocco, no twin jet upgrade is required, as it already has the factory twin jets, but our 84's had the single jet.

I want the later style A3 95+) nozzles for my Scirocco, the spray pattern is amazing at all speeds. 
 
Is it June yet?
