Question Impreza 2010 Hatchback headlamp washer cover

Hi,

Replaced my Ageing 2003 Black Impreza Blobeye STi type UK with prodrive and dealer mods last year for a 2010 Impreza hatchback model.
This morning noticed that the drivers side headlamp washer cover was missing and now when I use the headlamp washers the drivers side one now acts like a water canon and fires off the water straight in front. Tried my best to compare the 2 sides (1 on the passenger that still has the cover on)to see if it's just the cover that has come off or something else as well.
So a couple of questions:

1).. Are the covers known to fall off on this model?

2).. If I managed to get a replacement cover is it just a straight clip on or is there something else that's needed that directs the nozzle towards the headlamp? As I want to make sure I get the right part(s) to replace, which I believe the cover alone from a dealership is about £48!

Unfortunately I have no tech manual for this model so not sure how this works.

Thanks in advance

They don't fall off, they are pretty secure unless its been forced off before at some point. they just push on and clip in

Cheers Rob84. I am wondering if some ****** has made off with it then? Which is annoying.
Although I could see any scrapes on the bumper so unless the plastic has broken away with wear and tear maybe? Oh well. So looks like I am just looking for the cover then.

Well just enquired directly with IM and it's going to cost me £40.80 for a replacement. But will have to wait between 2-3 weeks to have one delivered from Japan as there are none in the country.
