Remove the air vents located in the central dashboard of an Opel Astra. Detach the protective trim around the central dashboard, remove the radio and central display: there are screws on the sides.

Remove the right air vent and then the left one after removing the entire radio piece. Pry between the vent and the plastic trim until the piece disconnects.

After removing the air vents, install the new air vents in the dashboard (always use a non-scratch lever). Refit the air vents, and finally, reinstall the radio and the protective trim.
