Default Headlight Washer Leak Update

I took the car into the dealership this morning. They said the cylinder was leaking (typical), but I also had a leak in the passenger side nozzle. $120 in parts, $280 in labor (bumper removal required).

I cant believe it's $400 to fix an annoying washer fluid leak. For future reference, anyone have any suggestions for a good independent shop in the Kansas City, MO area? I'm getting tired of $100+ labor rates, and I'm not sure I fully trust the dealer. My previous Benz was just as bad.

I fixed mine by plugging the hole in the tank. I don't like the headlight washers anyway.

2nd that. I cut the hose feeding the nozzles and I plugged it with a bolt. No more leaks. =)
