    Hello,
    My center AC vent is loose... it flops down, or when pushed up, stays up as if it were spring loaded in the up position.
    Are there any guides on how to go about removing the vent?

    This is Toyota part number 55670-47120 for a 2013 Prius Three.

    Thank you

    There should be a gajillion YouTube videos of people taking these things apart and out I don't think I've had to have mine apart yet I have two generation twos but haven't had the fool with any of the vents unlike the generation 2 where there's a lot of vent playing around going on

    Before posting here, I searched YouTube for this kind of video... searched Toyota parts sources and Googled in general for this problem. I did not find directions on removing the center vents, that applies to this series of cars. Hoping that someone on this forum has the specific experience with this. Thanks
