Default Changing out the headlight washer nozzle

Has anyone attempted this job. There is no mention in the manual on how to do this task.

well you have to remove the front bumper cover to get to the squirters....

with the front of the car jacked up ,
remove the inner liners and the front block off plates.

If you have a spoiler remove it. Clean the nuts with PB and the tooth brush

Then spray some PB blaster on the nuts then scrub them with a tooth brush to remove any dirt.

then remove the nuts.

Put a milk crate with a towel on it under the front bumper to rest the cover on while you swap out the squirters.

When you go to install the cover be careful how the washer hose routes.

Also if your front bumper is pushed in then get two good front bumper shocks,
and swap them out

Also if the bumper beading is worn get some new beading and staple it on

Thx Mrmerlin for the info. Sound like a pain in the butt for just a squirter

My passenger side squirter had a small piece cracked off the base and it bugged the hell out of me.
I simply changed it out from the wheel well area. It was a mild pain in the *** but nothing major.

I don't know what the driver's side entails. I do recommend ordering the plastic retainer nuts as they may fall apart as you unscrew them from the nozzle.
