How to Remove the Air Vents

Let's see how to remove the air vents (center dashboard) from an Audi A6. Use multiple levers (screwdriver) to remove the vents. Pry at the top and bottom with the levers (as shown in the video) until you release the clips inside; detach the air vents and pull them out from the dashboard. Once you have pulled the vents outward, disconnect the two power connectors (as shown in the video) and remove the piece. Prepare to perform maintenance inside the dashboard, and then start installing the new air vents; connect the terminals and secure everything.
