Update:

Got home from work and there was a post missed delivery leaflet in the hall,

Much like Charlie with his golden ticket in Willywonka, I drove to those local post office depot

To my surprise it was of course the replacement air vents that had been dispatched yesterday,

Clever using a milk bottle top to protect a pertruding clip :)

Thankfully all arrived 100% condition

25 Euro for all three,

Here they are:

Now here's the old vents as they were in the car.

nah it's too dark now mate, it was a 5 hour job to get them out so to speak ;)

Had to remove passengers airbag and drivers fusebox etc. Need a full day and daylight too, they screw in to the rear of the dash too just to be super difficult.

I'm taking a few days off working on the car, going to work on getting somthing else in tonite instead gigetty ^_^

Aye sometimes you need the light to see what you are doing but sometimes you find yourself in certain positions where no amount of light helps, normally dashes lol :P

+1 mate,

Then see the ring holes on the vents, each one of them is a 20mm M6 Philips head screw going through the hole and in to the dash,

Try lining up the vent,

Hold it in that position,

Align the Philips head screw,

And screw it in to place.

All blindfold as its all under the dash, lots of eye squinting, eye rolling and of course lip licking while feeling around trying to get it all together :p

That needs doing a total of 7 times to complete, then hold up the passenger airbag and bolt it tight hoping it doesn't go off on ya lol

This job of changing vents on the Levin is as tricky as fitting an ST pod to a focus.

Ever seen a airbag go off Lenny, I used to work at a place that made them so be careful mate and take note of below

​NEVER PLUG OR UNPLUG AIRBAGS OR MODULES WITHOUT THE battery DISCONNECTED... EVER

Also leave for 30 minutes with a light switch or something on to make sure system is totally discharged

Even then cringe lol
