I want to save a couple of ounces, cause I hate those washers.

Default what you can do is just unplug the line that goes to them and plug it so you dont lose the fluid....

besides to take the nozzles out you have to take your front bumper off and who wants to go through all that trouble.
Just leave them in there and disconnect the water line.
Or if you feel like making a project take the bumper off...un bolt the nozzles..and glue the covers.
The covers are heald on with two little plastic tabs..which go into the nozzle itself.

Default I would buy your washer nozzles if you do take them off. I need them... Also, if you have the old

OEM S4 IC shrouds, I could use them as well. Let me know at dwang0725@yahoo.com
