Looks like your next mod Robert. I was thinking of using the small jet they use in centre of VW Golf (and others) rear wiper arm, and fitting a T from the front washer pipe. Should work a treat.

Must be a way of getting it to fit and not look crap
That is exactly what I am thinking about.
Splitting tailgate window wash nozzle supply pipe and using it for washing camera lens as well.
In the simplest way the camera would be washed every time the tailgate window is washed
or alternatively there could be a solenoid valve added
which would allow for camera wash only when reversing gear is engaged.
Last step would be OEM T6 camera replacement with another OEM but equipped with washing nozzle.
Alternatively independent washing nozzle could be mounted next to the camera and directed at the lens.

.Have you seen the cameras on some Mercedes cars? They hide under the boot handle flush until the car slows down to walking pace and then drop down and open so they can be used. I thought I was seeing things behind a Mercedes in traffic when I could see something popping down and then disappearing again when the car drove off. Quite nifty.
Every time I get near a Q5 with my thieving tools, the bloomin' alarm goes off!!!
You’re too far away - I outsourced that job!
The wife’s C220 did this, rather impressive plus the camera gave the option of a wider lense.
Tempted to swap the cameras?
