I have a leak in my front right headlight washer and need to repair it as well. Tracing the leak looks like a major effort to remove panels etc..

Yes...it's a very very easy job, but requires two people. First, get the replacement nozzle, runs about 40 or 50 bucks...then,


While you have someone activate the washers...have someone with needle nose players grab the nozzle while it's elevated out of the headlight.

Then, while it's being held...carefully remove the nozzle off of the "hose" by pushing in the tab...you see what I'm referring to when you look at it.

Then, simply put the new nozzle in....literally takes less than a minute. Just be very careful with the parts as they are plastic...patience.
