  1. With the center vent trim loosened, grasp both sides of the gauge cluster cowling and give it a good tug towards you. It should pop loose of the dash with minimal effort.

  1. Pull the left side of center air vent trim (next to the hazard flasher button) out just enough so that its red-colored tab can be free of the corresponding tab hole of the gauge cluster cowling.

  1. Once this tab hole is free from the center trim, the gauge cowling will now lift off free of the dash. There is a wiring connector to address underneath on the right side, so disconnect it.

  1. Flip the gauge cluster cowling over to access the backside of the air vent assembly. There are four (4) anchor locations around the perimeter of the air vent that you need to pry loose with a small flat-bladed screwdriver while you push on the assembly from the backside. Utilize a flashlight if you're having difficulty locating them.
