Headlight washers?

I knew that the Euro RX-8s have headlamp washers, but I didn't realize that they have them in Canada as well. Check out the pictures on this thread.

Any idea why they don't fit them in the U.S? Does anyone know whether these are effective at cleaning the headlights? I had washers and wipers(!) on a Saab I owned and they were great at cleaning the headlights of road dirt in the winter.

I don't want them. Here is Southern California there's not much need for them. Extra cost, extra weight, extra complexity, extra servicing - just another thing to malfunction eventually for very little benefit. Just to avoid wiping your headlights at a gas station or car wash. Not worth it.

Should be an option for gadget freaks needing another gizmo on their car, or for those living in areas where a lot of dirt gets on their car.
