Question Headlight Washer Nozzles - RESOLVED

I just finished repairing the mounts on my headlight assembly and I noticed the washer nozzles when I was re-installing it. Am I missing a nozzle? Or is this what the nozzle end is supposed to look like?

Default MIssing nozzle

I too had a missing nozzle. Found something similar on an empty perfume bottle (wife’s) and just glued that in place. Works fine and is unseen.

I have spare nozzles if you want them as I have just purchased and fitted a new one.

The perfect thread in reply to a clearly written and illustrated question:
1. succinct answer
2. informative workaround
3. generous offer

A mucho gracias to DougXK8. He sent me the business end of a headlight washer component saving me a lot of financial grief and endless searching through salvage yard sources. Very gracious gentleman. He also has a nice looking car.
