How to remove the air vents on an Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 8P, MK 2 - Years 2003-2013
Part: Air vents

Before we can start, we will have to go and sit in the driver's seat of our Audi A3. So let's start by unhooking the internal hooks that have the role of fixing the air vents to the central dashboard, using a thin but resistant plastic tool and levering. By doing so, we will have cleared the central air vents. We then proceed to remove them from their housing. Once we have completed this last step, we will be able to permanently remove the air vents of our Audi A3, and we will have successfully completed the disassembly.
