Installing headlight washer

Hi,
I like how the headlight washers look on the X5. Too bad mine doesn't come with it. I'm thinking about putting them on mine just for the look, but I won't connect all the hoses and stuff to make it functional. I'm in CA and seldom uses the headlight washers.

What do you guys think of that? Which parts do I need? I think I need 4 parts for each piece. I'll ask my shop to install them. They said it should be pretty easy. But when I talked to the dealer, he doesn't recommend it and said it will never look right.

I'm going to paint the 4.6is kit this week. I want to paint the washers altogether if possible.

thanks a lot. I'll order those and let them do the installation next week. Since they are professionals, it should be fairly easy for them, right? Is there any holes or "measurement" for the installation? Or there should be something underneath the bumper to let you identify the position?

no problem, just order them through Vaheh..all those little parts should be in stock so he can ship it out right away...where are you having the install done? i refuse to attempt to cut holes in my bumper so i'm having someone install it for me but first i need to get off my lazy butt and drop off the washer covers to have it painted
