Hey guys

I've been searching this forum for 2 days , looking for a way to get the door vents off. I just can't seem to get them out. I haven't used much force on them , scared to damage them.
Can anyone help me please ???

take off the door panel, and there are like 8 screws in the back. the dash vents you can just pop out with a flathead, but to get the door vents out you need to take the whole door panel off.

Yup, when you take the door panel off.

whenever you take off the door panel, it's best to talk to the dealer a few days in advance to get those little pieces of plastic which tend to break whenever you pull the door off. slip onto the door cover and pop into the door frame. They hold the door in place and reduce rattling. There's 4 on each door and they cost like a buck each. Trust me, 1 or 2 will break.

I've had my panels on and off a few dozen times, haven't broken anything.

The blue plastic pieces were designed to hold on tightly and break before anything else does, they do that on every car which is why for most vehicals you can buy them at autozone. Our cars are not popular enough to be stocked there. I've only broken about 4 of them (i think) and that's pretty good considering I've had both door covers off three times. I didn't have them the first time, so i went and got 6 and then put them on the 2nd time.



BTW they have parts breakdowns on HMAService.com. It makes taking apart the car much easier.

Go on HMAService.com
