I ordered the EC01-67-50YA to install on my newly acquired P5. On my last car the nozzles came off rather easy, but these seem to be stuck on there pretty good. I can't even get them to pop out from the hood. Is there a specific way to dislodge these? Is the tubing for the wiper fluid permanently connected to the P5 nozzles or can they be disconnected?

You have to pinch the tabs and pull

the factory workshop manual mentions using a deep-well 10mm socket on the underside to dislodge the tabs. just pull the hose from the nozzle, stick the socket onto the bottom side, and the nozzle will pop right out. i've done this, and it actually work pretty well.

This worked for me as well. Had them swapped out in a matter of minutes.

What's the advantage of the Tribute nozzles?
