Removing the dashboard of the E-Class, both the lower and upper parts, is not particularly difficult as long as you know where the screws are located and pay attention to the few electrical connectors you will encounter during the process. The lower panel requires the removal of 2 screws, while to extract the upper part, simply pull it off, as there are 6 clips holding it in place.

To remove the air vent grille, unscrew the visible screw above it. You may need to remove the dashboard to replace the LED lighting.
