The vents themselves just pop out. Be careful not to bust them.

They cannot be easilyremoved without breaking them unless you have the
special Ford tool to do so.
I cant be a part of LEDs behind the vents of a Stang. No way, no how.
Unless its a Raptor Shift Light.......

With the dash mat of the other thread and this, are you converting your ride into a disco?

It was pretty easy for me, i didn't see anywhere you'd need a special tool, just some enginuity.



First you use a flat blade screw driver to pop the vent blades out. Then you'll need to pry the plastic clips on the inner tube inward while pulling out on the vent. I believe there are three plastic clips that hold the inner tube to the outer vent tube. You must keep pressure pulling outward on the vent or the plastic clips will just pop back over the outer tube.

Oh, if you just remove the panel with the vent on it, then it's much easier.
