Before starting, sit in the driver's seat of your Volkswagen Tiguan. Begin by prying out and removing the upper inserts in the frame that contains the vents, using a thin but sturdy tool and applying leverage, and then disconnect any electrical connector if present.

Once done, unscrew and remove the screws securing the frame with the vents. After completing this step, you can remove the frame with the vents, finishing the disassembly.

To install the frame with the new vents, simply reverse this procedure, and the replacement will be complete.
