42212, Door window vent removal Posted by juan, Mar-06-03 10:48 AM
So, a while back I tried to take out one of the door window vents. I just busted off some of the plastic, and let it alone. Now, I want to finish what I was doing. How do you remove those things? I wasn't sure if they were screwed in or just pressure fit or whatever. Any tips?

if i remember correctly, they are screwed in with those cheap nuts...they are made out of flat steel and are threaded kinda onto lil plastic posts. you have to completely remove the door skins. same way for the defroster vents in the doors too..they are held by the same lil nuts. oh, and i think there are about 3-4 phillips head screws you gotta take out too. hope this helps!

It's a major Pain in the ass Juan. You need very very small screwdrivers, some of them bent at a 90* angle and used more like a wrench. Just took those out of a buddy's car and it sucked ass!

Oh gezz, I hope that wasn't directed towards me. I have poor grammer skills, I apologize if so. And sometimes my fingers get away from me}(
