I just replaced all three of my '88.I just grabbed the front ones with a pair of pliers and pulled them out, wiggling back and forth until they came out. I also removed the washer tank and cleaned it out. It was full of slime that was gunking up the nozzles. I also replaced the pump gasket and the tank gasket. Cost was @$25. The rear nozzle I removed after removing the rear panel. A number of the plastic clips broke when trying to remove them. I bought a set of clips to replace the broken ones, so if you are going to replace the rear get some clips before hand so the panel can be replaced with out vibrating (mine did until I got new clips) Now my nozzles squirt rather than dribble.
