Headlamp washer nozzle

Just purchased an '04 SL500 and when I tried the headlamp washer the right nozzle shot out. I was able to locate it, however, need help on how to re-install. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Those things are out of control. Unless you feel like giving your whole car a wash, don't hit the button.

Coincidentally, today I accidentally hit the button and messed up the front of my recently polished car.

I accidently hit the washer button and my right nozzle shot out too. Went to the MB dealer as my 2007 SL550 is CPO'd. Was told the cold weather last winter must have caused the plastic holding the nozzle to crack and the whole thing had to be replaced. Cost $200+ and not covered by CPO. Whaaaaaa. Since I will never use the thing I'll save the $220+ and not worry about it.
