One of my eyeball-vents will not switch off as the vanes don't move - the knob is jammed. I want to remove the assembly to fix it, if possible, or source a replacement.
How do you remove those side eyeball vents on a 2000 GTV?

Bad news: the assembly is attached to the back of the dashboard with 3 screws. Needs removal of the dashboard.:surprise:

Good news: You can pop the eyeball from its base and fit the new one in its place without tools or removing anything. :wink2:

    Hi everyone This is Rus on the CT Shoreline. I've been on this forum since January 2010 when I bought a basketcase-with-lipstick 1973 GTV. I had always tuned and worked on my own cars, motorcycles but had never touched a welder, opened a motor past valve adjustments or done much wiring or...
