To remove the air vents located in the centre of the dashboard, you must first remove the trim that surrounds the instrument cluster and integrates the central and left-hand air vents; leverage along the edge of the trim to unclip it, allowing you to extract the vents from their respective slots.

To complete the removal, disconnect the power connector for the indicator switch and unclip the upper portion of the steering column cover.
