Well, posted about the things raising up yesterday (with a very....ahem...interesting followup about nipples).
Came out this morning (very cold outside) and lo and behold. The angels of vehicular destruction left me a present of frozen windshield washer fluid under the driver's side headlight washer. I haven't been out to look to see how bad the damage is, but I'm thinking either a hose ruptured or came disconnected.
Anyone know what to look for or could give me any pointers to where the washer hose(s) is/are?
Or could this be something that isn't that major? Mind you, the car lives in Florida and is on a 5-day vacation in the Mountains of NC.
thanks so much!

Could just be leftover drippings that froze and not a leak in the hose. to find the leak, open hood and have someone in the car activate the washer pump. if there is a leak you will see the fluid spraying out there

It's right under the sprayer itself, inside the bumper. I was able to just press it back on. I remember that the clip that holds it looked like it was a poor design, and not able to hold it very tight. I cant remember if I got to it through the bottom, or by removing the little black plastic grill, but it was pretty easy and obvious.
