Just did the "replace the T piece" trick on my TL under-bonnet washer hoses. Original just broke off all by itself. Found a spare that I must have bought years ago when my TS washers acted up the same way.
Had to shorten the hoses a bit for the above reason.

I don't suppose anyone has mentioned the steering wheel foam letting go of the steel frame inside it?

I broke my t-piece as well. So I printed one.

Yes, I've come across this. My parts car had this problem and I asked about it; apparently it happens every now and then. I was told that, if you don't want to replace the wheel, then an auto upholsterer or similar might be able to inject a glue into the foam that will fix it up.
