Ive damaged the Headlight washer >_<
 

Well, not so much "damaged" as ripped off.

It happened just over a week ago when the Audi drove me, the misses and four mates to the airport at 4am to go skiing in France for a week. The trip to the airport was in freezing temperatures and thick snow.

When I pulled up at the airport to unload (before heading off to park the car) I noticed the passanger side headlight washer was stuck in its up postion. I pressumed as I was washing the window it had frozen in that postion when driving along, something I swore at and thought I would leave until I got back. But as I ran round the car to go park up, my baggy trousses caught it and ripped it clean off >_<

I will give A8 parts a call tomorrow to try and order a new black headlight jet for the 99 8 but I have had a look and I cant see how it could be replaced without removing the bumper.... can it be done or is it a bumper off job? How easy is the repair for someone with almost 0 skills?!

I will take pictures it tonight. At the moment I am gutted. I really hate the look of the gapping hole in the bumper!

On a good note my mates were amazed at how well the A8 coped with the snow, they were terriffied that we wouldnt make it to the airport.

Here is some pictures of the broken bumper headlight washer. As you can see its totally snapped off. I can see that the "stem" is also a pipe for the water to run up.

Is it a bumper off job to fit a new one?
