Need ideas on how to "delete" the headlight washer from my car
Does anyone have any idea at all how to delete the washers from the headlights? To make long story short, i sold my ls600 headlights and bought used stock headlights. That being said, the used headlights hardly ever come with the headlight washer nozzles and chrome plate that sits on top of the headlight so i am pretty much with 2 headlights and a little hole on the bottom of the headlight.
I refuse to spend $266 for each one of the actuators PLUS $55 dollars per chrome tip. That is simply over $500 dollars that i dont really find useful because i dont even use the headlight washers so my mechanic will delete or remove the rest of the headlight washer system from my car.
I have thought about buying the chrome trim for the headlights so i can "cover" the hole on them with it, but the trim is not thick enough to completely conceal the hole on the headlight.
I would like for you guys to give me ideas on how you would cover or conceal the hole left by removing the washer system from them....
thanks in advance!
EDIT: I WAS GOING TO BUY 2010+ HEADLIGHTS SINCE THEY DONT HAVE THE WASHER SYSTEM ON THEM, BUT I WASNT SURE THEY WERE GOING TO FIT MY CAR SO I STAYED WITH WHAT i KNOW FITS.

Silver, once the chrome caps are put back in place, how big is the gap from the lights to the top to make it even? If anything, you can either do as you suggested or get the factory caps and use that 3M emblem double sided tape to put them in place. Its pretty thick so it should make up the difference. If you can, post pics and we might be able to help a bit better.
