- Insert a scriber and push up one of the catches in the lower edge of the air vents' housing.
- Insert the tool part no. 9995919 in the space which is opened and pull out until the catch releases.
- Repeat this until all catches in the lower edge have released.

Illustration B




- Grip the ends of the housing and pull out until all catches on both the top and bottom are fully free from the inside of the dashboard. If necessary, use a weatherstrip tool to prize out the ends of the housing.

Note! Do not damage the dashboard.

Note! Pull alternately on the right and left-hand sides, otherwise the edge of the housing will crack where it enters the air ducts on the inside. The housing is secured firmly so force will be required to release it.




- Remove the panel on the right-hand end of the dashboard. Carefully prize off the panel until the three clips release. Use a weatherstrip tool.

Note! Do not damage the dashboard.




- Remove the clip holding the nozzle for the air duct on the right-hand side.

- Fit the support legs of the bracket from the kit into the socket for the surround of the combined instrument panel and in the left-hand air vent.
- Position the left-hand support leg of the bracket as illustrated. The front edge of the support leg must be parallel with the edge in the cut-out in the dashboard and the measurement to the bottom edge of the support leg must be taken from the centre of the radius.
- Mark out the holes to be drilled for the mounting.




- Drill out the holes using a -5 mm (13/64')diameter drill bit. Use a 10 mm (25/64')drill stop to prevent damaging the components on the inside.
- Remove any swarf.




- Secure the left-hand support leg of the bracket to the dashboard using two screws and the mounting plate (located on the inside) from the kit.




- Drill out the hole for the right-hand support leg with a -4 mm (5/32') diameter bit.
- Take a screw from the kit and secure the right-hand support leg.
