not sure on the test over there,,
uk we would need the "headlight washers" And "self levelling " which links the headlight up/down to the rear suspension ,,That is a Nightmare to retro fit and £££ over here,,

you would need
new washer res, with the extra takeoff for the high pressure headlight washer pump
high pressure headlight pump (£70+ vat from volvo)
few feet of tubing, couple of T connectors , one way valve

Replacement front bumper cover With the cutouts + covers OR cut the holes yourself and fit covers painted to match

And the "ah" the car programed to allow them to work
they Only work when the dip beams are on (light switch vertical) And then only every 5th wash of the screen ...

I was just looking into it myself quite a lot involved perhaps cheaper easier to have a set of “test” halogen lights and go retro fit bi Xeon projectors that Iv been reading the threads on considering tske 5mins to take headlights out
