Yes, stick a pin in them and give them a wiggle.
I remember when some people thought it funny to align the wiper sprays to soak people on the pavement. Those were the days, innocent fun :|
Fiddly job, but satisfying when you get it right.
As has been said, a pin (or needle) is all that you need:
A while ago I thought the nozzles were blocked so used a needle and managed yo break the end off in the nozzle...
LOL Barry, thanks for the laugh.
The trick (not mentioned in Chris's link) is to aim them a little higher than the centre of the screen (car not moving obviously!). When the car is moving, the fluid will hit the screen several centimetres lower...how much, depends on speed.
I used to aim one of the jets over the roof. If someone tailgated me, I would give them a free screen wash. It was even better is they were in a convertible with the top down!
Electrochem, for non soft tops that is no punishment. I laugh my socks off when I see someone's screen wash missing their own screen.

Only one of the four jets (two each side of the windscreen) was aimed over the roof. It had the desired effect.

I now have a rear facing camera to deal with tailgaters etc.
