Headlight washer covers

Sorry guys I have searched for this but can't seem to get a clear answer. One of my covers came away today but I found it. Trouble is it didn't have the triangular clip underneath to snap it back onto the washer head. Are these available or is there some sort of bodge? I'm not sure if they come with new covers or not? Thanks :thumbsup:
 
I found the clip only comes with the washer body (and are handed L/R), some members have found aftermarket sources for the clips on the web or a Volvo part that is sold separately and appears to be the same but I'm not sure if it worked.

Cheap (and nasty looking) clip https://www.shapeways.com/product/WY58JQRX6/headlight-washer-cap-connector-for-bmw-z4-e85-e86

Keep us posted if you decide to go with either of these as they seem to randomly pop off :(
 
I used a shapeways clip which is still holding strong, easiest way to fit them is to first put the clip on to the cover then get someone to operate the washers and grab it as it comes up and clip it on. You may get a bit damp :thumbsup:
