Removing rear air vent

[PSM]

One of the slats on my rear air vent (at back of centre console) does not work so want to remove it to fix or replace. How do I remove it from the console?

According to the Haynes manual looks as though it prises out. As part of the instructions for removing the centre console it refers to removing the rear ashtray and then says "carefully prise out the rear air vent/storage compartment...,"

Yep, open up the ashtray underneath and get your fingers under the vent panel.

 

Comes off really easily.

Great, thanks for that. I saw the online guide for removing the centre console but just said remove so assumed it just pulled out but wanted to check.

Indeed! I was surprised how easy it came off! Thanks

Does anyone know the part number for the vent tunnel that supplies air to rear vents? 
it sits under the centre arm rest? 
I’m retro fitting one into my car. Missing that part also, what size one torx screws think I’ll be missing at least 6.
