   Grille doesn't matter.
   Not sure what the rules are on washer jets.
   They could be like the rules on fog lights ( if it ain't there they can't test it, but if it's there and doesn't work then it's a fail/advisory)

   No jets, cant clean the screen, the swept area not being clean is a failllz!
   
   Why did you not get them relocated to the scuttle so they still spray?

   You will need working washer jets i think. As far as i know you need to have washer liquid at all times, let alone washer jets.

    Get a pair of aero wipers, extend the washer pipes with thin black piping, run the pipe up each arm and the length of both wipers, and put a tiny holes in each one.
