Default center dash vent removal

my center right side ac vent lovers fell apart. I got the part but how do you get to it? I know the center radio cover has to come off, but how is that attatched. 07 H3 thanks, tom south florida

If you are speaking of the brushed aluminum cover. It is held in place by spring clips (only)
You must pull it straight out from the bottom first.
Put your fingers into the two holes which are the two charging ports at the bottom.
This gives you some where to grab. NO screwdriver around the edges !!!
Pull straight out and the bottom spring clips will detach.

Then grab both sides of the now loose cover and again pull straight back and the other clips
will detach. Be careful of the wiring harnesses attached to the cover.
They must be disconnected in order to entirely remove the cover.

Once it is removed, you will see the stereo unit and your two plastic vents

Good luck

Exactly what wft said.

Also, If you are in a cold climate let the entire interior heat up before attempting the center dash trim removal. Less chance of breaking something.
