how to remove the air vent covers
Recently I was driving and heard noise coming from the inside of my passenger dash and the noise sounded like a bunch of pencils rolling around and im wandering if anybody would know how to remove the air vent the controls the amount of air coming out and the direction that it blows so i can try to either see better what the noise is and or get the object out.

They just slide out of their position in the dash. Use something small, maybe a flat blade screwdriver, to pry them out and get them started. Be careful not to scratch or chip the plastic.

Yep. I routinely pull mine out with the air freshener sticks that slide in the vent and snap in place. Every time I change themharofreak00 wrote:Just grab the 2 knobs and pull straight out.
