It is fairly easy. Pull up the nozzle and grab the plastic part inside the housing. If you have no "cap" then when you purchase the new part you will see how it connects. I had a buddy use needle nose pliers and pull up the plastic part inside the housing and I simply snapped in the new cover.

Arrg! Do NOT pull up the nozzle! This is terrible advice because the nozzles are motor-driven and will provide a ton of resistance (making it more likely that you will break something by forcing it). It's awkward, but the proper way to do this is for you to wait at the headlight, ready to pinch the nozzle while a second person actuates the motor by pushing in on the headlight washer stick on the steering wheel. Once you have it clasped in your hand, use a thin regular screwdriver to release the single tab that grabs the threaded part of the washer trim/chrome piece. You should now be able to slide out the washer trim. Before you let the nozzle retract into the headlight assembly, be sure to push in the tab you just pulled out so that it's ready to catch the next piece of trim. Make sure you have the correct headlight washer trim piece (right or left) and then just insert into the nozzle hole. You should hear it snap into place.
