Tailgate washer jet W202 Estate

[Stratman]

During the recent cold snap, the fluid connection on the tailgate washer jet did just that: snapped It took me a while to work out why the rear window was dirty and the inside of the car smelled of cleaning fluid.

Anyway, I am unsure just which parts are available separately. The broken bit is shown in picture 1. It's location is shown arrowed in picture 2.

Is it possible to buy just the broken plastic bit and if so, how is the old one removed? Gentle levering has so far failed to budge it

And why don't the pictures appear directly

if you can't get a replacement part don't risk removing the original - you may damage it further. as it stands now I'd look at a little bit of "home engineering" and make an adaptor - drill the hole a little larger and then insert a short length of piping in the hole which you can attach the hose to.
