Just went out and plugged the headlight washer pump, luckily found a small enough hose clamp in my junk drawer. All is good for now!

What did you put in it to close it off?

Looks like he pinched it off with a hose clamp. Just squished it perhaps.

I actually found a rubber plug type thing that slipped over the end of the washer pump nice and tightly. Hose clamp is just for added security but I'm not sure if it's really needed

I'm on the hunt for arubber plug type thing

You guys are better off acquiring a non-headlight washer pump, IMO... that would guarantee you'll never have this problem again.

Not sure why you continued to experience leaking issues when we did yours initially BP. I have a similar setup on my ZHP and have no leaksI don't think Sparrow will have issues with his solution based on the pic he provided. Looks good Sparrow!

All I'm saying is that as long as the plumbing from the washer pump exists (plugged or not), it's a potential point of failure. It's a matter of time before the hose coming from the pump develops a crack or leaks. It's not a permanent solution.Not sure why you continued to experience leaking issues when we did yours initially BP. I have a similar setup on my ZHP and have no leaks

Point taken but if I choose to someday go back to OE configuration regarding headlight washers, my way would make going back much easier....that's all I'm sayin'.
