850 - Removing heater vents - how?

posted by  someone claiming to be Snorri_H on  Tue Feb 8 21:44 CST 2005 [RELATED]


Hi,

I'm stuck. I need to remove the heater vents in my '96 850. I have pried and poked a bit but I need some good advice on removing them (and this is the tricky part) without breaking them! Any hints? I have looked at Volvospeed.com and it says:

"By turning the vent down as far as it will go and then forcing it a bit more you will notice it comes unhooked slightly, and by moving it up/down you will be able to free it from the dash."

I don't notice it coming unhooked. Does this description tally with your experience?

Snorri H.

    If you tilt them all the way forward and lightly pry on the side in the center they should come out. I used a thin screwdriver with tape on it. If you break one I have three or four spares

      Thanks. I tried this and it came out in one piece.
