Yeah, it sure does. You may find it easier if you pull the interior light out and the ~3" trim strip across the inside of the roof which the light mounts onto as you will then have access to the underside of the roof.
I haven't done this on mine but the theory is sound :o) Other people have recommended using credit card like things (store cards, etc) to push the holding clips from the outside. Just slide them under the washer nozzle then lift it up but this sounds like a three handed job to me!

Gareth, Ahhhhh. I had forgotten about that entry point. Does the washer nozzle mount just like the ones on the hood? I will go take a look at my car during lunch. Excellent!
