How do I get the windscreen washer nozzle out?

My nozzle is blocked up, and needs taking out for a proper clean or replacement. Before I start ripping the dash apart, is there an easy way to get it off?

I realise I could probably just pull it off, but its the getting back on that concerns me a little.

2003 model TD5 with newer style dash, and air con if that makes any difference.

They should be the same as the rear, which has a nut on it. So behind each there is a threaded section and a nut.
You might be able to get access just through the centre dash.

Might be worth trying a needle or pin downs the nozzles plenty of times too first. GBR

Cheers Chaps. Already tried the needle, and when I tried to re-align the nozzle a bit, the needle snapped off flush

I guess I am going to give it a pull and see what happens

i,m not sure but you may be able to get to the back of the washer jet on a Td5 if you remove the ash tray from the top of the dash. 2005 Td5 90 XS
