In this short video tutorial, you will see how to remove the front air vents on an Audi A3. The removal process is very simple and requires no special tools; however, take care not to damage other components or scratch the interior body parts. First, release the vents by prying with a pointed tool on the sides.

You can either pull them out by hand or use a very thin plastic lever. Once removed, clean the area thoroughly and reassemble everything!
