This video shows how to remove the air vents on an Alfa Romeo 159. Start by using a plastic trim tool to detach the air vents located in the central dashboard; if you have difficulty, obtain metal hooks (as shown in the video) and insert them into the air vent. Once the two hooks are secured to the edges of the air vent, pull them out with your hands until the vent is removed from its housing.
