Can anyone help me? I got all of the screws out (3 on driver side, 2 on passenger side), but the vents WILL NOT come out. It feels like something is holding it in place at the top of the vent.

theres three on the passenger side, im painting mine today and its a pain to get out take out your center concel and the third one if you put your finger on the right side and feel for it. it should be left lower side, if you cant find it tell me and ill take a pic of mine.l

Are you sure? The DIY says there are only 2 on the passenger side, and the pic only shows 2 screws. I finally got the driver's side one off, I just had to put some muscle into it. The passenger side one is a pita though.

you have two up front and one in the back

Can anyone confirm this? I'm not seeing/feeling a 3rd screw on the passenger side. I'm about ready to break this thing.

good to know. thanks for taking the time to make the DIY

Nevermind, I just went incredible hulk and got it off. To clarify, there is NOT 3rd screw on the passenger side.

Sorry for the double post, but I can't edit for some reason. Is that disabled on this forum?

just to prove this is what i pulled out..,....




three screws each. this is in a 05 se

I have an 03 GT, so they must be different. The post is there for the 3rd screw, but there is no hole.

Ohh well atleast we provided info for future help

scratch that false information on my part, i took a closer look and it looks like the previous owner drilled into the passenger side vent. i would edit but i cannot in the forum.

This info will be handy. I am about to install some leds in my vents and paint the rings too. Thanks for the pics of the screw locations guys

No problem. IMO, the screws were not the hardest part. The hardest part for me was actually removing the vents. Tip: you can't be scared of breaking them. You have to really pull to get them out. But I could see the screws being a problem if you have big hands.

Post up some pics of your led vents when you're done!

Good luck getting to that far right hand screw. I tried for an hour and then gave up, and just cut the old ring off.
