    Found them in Denmark as well.
    But they are not cheap, and I would like to buy them a bit cheaper ..

    OK...after removing one of my vents, I now understand how it works. It's hard to explain until the thing is out of the fender sitting in your hand. Now I see what you guys were saying.


    Below are some idiot-proof instructions for guys like me that need all the help we can get...

    You could probably fight the vent out with your bare hands or maybe use a screwdriver to pry it out(yikes!)...but try the steps below and you won't break a fingernail or scratch your fender!


    [ These instructions were photographed on the passenger-side vent. ]


    Step 1:

    Apply a piece of masking tape towards the front of the vent as shown in the picture below. I used 2 layers of tape for added protection. This is where you will be grabbing the vent in the next step to remove it.

    Step 2:

    Using a small pair of needle-nose pliers, grab the vent where the tape is.
    The tape will protect the vent from being scratched and it will help prevent the pliers from slipping off.

    Step 3:

    While gripping the vent with the pliers, apply slight pressure to slide the vent back towards the rear of the car until it won't move any further. You will be moving the vent in the direction indicated by the arrow below. The vent is spring loaded and you will only be able to move it about 1/8 of an inch.

    Step 4:

    With the vent slid back, pull straight out on the pliers. The front edge of the vent should easily come right out of the fender.

    Here you go. $43 shipped, more than what I wanted to pay for them, but meh whatever saves me a trip to the junk yard where all they have is old Volvos.

    I'll post pics when I get them.
