Removing Interior Trim

Post by Lyons » Sun Feb 17, 2019 7:34 am

Does anyone know how to remove the centre heater vents? I don’t want to go randomly prodding as the button for the glovebox is obviously going to be affected some how.

Or is the chrome strip below separate to the vents?

Basically I’m trying to remove this trim, which appears to be held in by 2 screws behind the trim/vents.

Normally it's just a case of pulling them out but the ones i have removed in the past have been a very tight fit.
The dash is supple and will reform if it dents well mine did.
Edit
Just found this if it's any use.
