If you don't feel comfortable turning off your headlights for a moment then pull off to the side of the road for a moment.

Yes, it would be great to have a independant button for the headlight washers if you like to use them. I think they make more of a mess than they are worth.

I keep a small bottle of eye glass cleaner filled with wiper solution and a micro fiber cloth in compartment under the rear deck. I can clean both headlights pretty quick if they get that bad without drenching the hood.

i thought xenons are standard on the e70...? his headlight looks the same as mine. with those cute looking glass lenses.

US models have headlamp washers as part of the cold package, in EU it's mandatory to have them with Xenons

not all countries have Xenons as standard
