Abstract

A vehicle mounting structure is provided for positioning both an associated camera of an associated vehicle sensor system and an associated fluid nozzle of an associated washer assembly operatively associated with the associated sensor system. The mounting structure includes a housing including an exterior face having a first inner surface portion forming a first opening extending through the face for positioning of the associated camera and a second inner surface portion forming a second opening extended through the face for positioning of the associated nozzle. A diversion feature is extended outwardly from the face. The diversion feature at least partially surrounds the second opening and is adapted to divert associated fluid away from the second opening.
