Very effective if they have washers and small wipers fitted to sweep the lights, my MB has those, only as good as a rinse can be if they are simply jets without wipers and useless with dry muck splattered flies etc, difficult to see how you could have wipers on the head lights if plastic, they'd be scratched to useless in months.
had the same wipers and washers fitted to a Volvo lorry years ago, the problem is that they come on automatically every time you washed the screen if the headlights were on (same as my car) and on a mucky day you could empty the washer bottle of fluid in one day, so in practice i used to disconnect the headlamp washer pump, and without fail the mechanics would reconnect it every 6 weekly inspection.
By the way as an aside, and not wishing to divert the thread before its got going, i absolutely detest plastic headlights, give me real glass lenses any day...going to run my old MB till either i or it dies and not just for that reason.
