Default headlight washers...

Some idiotic kids threw snowballs at my car while I was spraying windshield washer onto my windshield and therefore the front headlight washers were popped up, spraying the liquid onto the headlights, perfect timing...Anyways, one of the snowballs, or iceballs hit the front headlight washer and nocked the cover off of it. I got a new cover for it from audi ($15CND) and after painting it and everything I found out that the car has to be hooked up to VAG so that the sprayers could be ejected for the cover to be put on. Anyone have some experience with this issue....any other ways arround it? Thanks.

Default while we are on the topic of headlight washers . . .

Does anybody know how much a new one cost's? I finally figured out why I am always low on washer fluid. My passanger side headlight washer is leaking. After I picked it up from the dealer for my 30k service. I found a small puddle under the front passanger side of my bumper. So I pulled my washer up and saw that the fluid was leaking from it. Hopefully the dealer will replace it under warrenty. If not does anybody have one laying around that they dont need?

Did you just pull it up when the car was off, or did you turn the car on and spray windshield washer and then when it came out you held it???
