windshield washer adjustment?

windshield washer adjustment?
my windshield washer nozzles spray too low. i find myself using way to much fluid to try and clean the window at speed. i used to be able to adjust previous honda's washer nozzle's with a pin, rotating the ball in seat to get the proper spray pattern.
i could not find anything about adjustment in the manual. I just checked out the car. it was a little tough to tell, but i thought the washer possibly could be rotated with a screwdriver. not sure if it was my mid teens weather, but it did not move. i didn't want to break it, so did not force the issue.
anyone know if the windshield washer nozzles are adjustable?

I have the same exact issue. Ill look at the nozzle later today. It has to be adjustable im thinking. If its non adjustable thats stupid.

i was looking at it again yesterday, and i do not think it is adjustable. it is 4 degrees right now, so i am not going to try and take it apart yet. i was hoping someone in a warmer climate could try...
the plastic cowl the sprayer nozzle is housed in, moves fairly easily. i was thinking of shimming the cowl up, thus moving the sprayers. if the nozzles are in fact non adjustable, then that will be our only option.

Yeah I'm in the same boat too Rodney, its around 8 degrees outside now. I quickly looked at the nozzles and they do seem like they are fixed. I was hoping for some sort of ball and socket design that allows adjustment. Once I have a chance to really analyze it I'll report back. If the cowl can be shimmed then at least its something.

Mine seems to change depending on the weather. Originally it always seemed low. But I think with winter maybe ice and snow have worked its way into the sprayers because at least for a while I was getting full spray coverage.
