Instructions:
- Park vehicle on a level surface and ensure vent/flipper is in the closed position.

- Carefully remove trim or access panels as needed to reach screw locations using a screwdriver or trim tool.
- Remove old screws and clean mounting holes and mating surfaces with a brush and rag to remove corrosion and debris.
