Default How do you replace a headlight washer?

Earlier this year I lost with Suburban. The damage was minor and since I plan to use the car on the weekends and at DEs I don't really care about concours shape. I just want to fill the space so I purchased a headlight washer nozzle.

Does it simply snap into place?

Should snap into place. You would have to remove the front bumper cover in order to reattach the hose that connects to the nozzle. Thats only if you want it to be functional.

Nothing special really, just a black tube that slips over the end. Just annoying to get to

It took me about 6 months to figure out the correct stalk movement to get them to spray... They would have been good when I drove my 964 C4 from portland maine to Quebec city in january, and the roads were full of salt.... Not much use for them in texas I imagine though....

I think they only spray if you have the lights on and then use the windshield washer

As JasonF says
but you push the stalk away from you.
