drivers side air vent removal
Hi, does anyone have any guidance on removing the left side, when sitting in the car, air vent? There's a screw in the upper right corner inside the vent and that's about all I can see. Has anyone done this? I have a vacuum leak on the damper of that vent and need to pull it.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hello,
I pulled the articles from WIS on removing the left vent and attached it here. Note that the article combines both left and right vent procedure into one. Step one of the removal process is to remove the bottom section of the dash on the driver's side. You don't need to take all of it apart as stated in the guide to just remove the vent I would imagine. Haven't done this myself before so that's all I can help with.

Austinramsay,
Perfect, thank you so much! Normally, I'd just dive into doing this and figure things out along the way. Unfortunately, the plastic parts in my car are beginning to get very brittle, and I wanted to ask advice from this forum. Thank you again for taking the time to respond!
