Removing Central Air Vents

Model: Mercedes Classe C W202 - Years 1993-2000
Part: Air vents

To remove the central air vents, located in the center of the dashboard in the center console, you first need to remove the control panel of the center console: it is essentially a frame that is snap-fitted, and you can pry along the edges to detach it; once the frame is removed, pull it away from its location and disconnect any connectors attached to the back (parking lights and window lift controls) to completely remove it; at this point, you can detach and remove the air vents.
