How to clean the air conditioning vents of our car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Air conditioner

As shown in the video, we can then remove the vents, which are usually just pressed in, and clean them with a soft brush (an old toothbrush in this case) or a microfiber cloth soaked in detergent, the surface of which we will then reinsert the clean vent.
