If you have it it's a little back square next to the front camera in the grille.
I'm pretty sure that cover is there even on cars that came without the washer behind it. I always found the front washer to be kinda useless. I really would have liked one for the rear camera though. That's the one that was covered in salt all winter.

One can completely confirm by standing infront of the car and have someone else spray the windshield sprayers. It'll pop out and spray like a spray bottle on the front camera. Don't pull on that cover to check as it'll pop off or get jammed most likely.

I agree that rear camera really does need it.

Click on your 360 parking camera and pull the stalk to wash your windshield and you can watch it wash the camera from in the car. I have it on my 21 don’t expect to use it. It just works every time I wash the windshield. Have not found a way to stop it other than disconnecting the wires. If you get residue then you need to switch fluids or cut it with water. Just don’t cut it with water in the winter if you live where it freezes.
