Touchscreen Navigation/DVD/CD/Radio install (step by step)

This thread should give you an idea on where you can target the vents to remove them. They do pop out. They should pop out in a similar, if not the same way.

they do pop out rather easily as seen in the video. I would recommend not only taking them out, but disassemble the trim pieces from the actual vent. there are several little tabs that hold them together (this is kind of a pain, but the results are much better). Also make sure you wipe the pieces down with alcohol really well so the vinyl doesn't peel. Good luck and post pics when done!!
