Replacing plastic dash vents
I need to replace a couple of the plastic dash vents in my 1998 4Runner that have broken after 16 years. Any help guidance on how to do this and where to get parts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Contact anyone parting out rigs in the classifieds. With some finesse using a screwdriver you can pop them out

Yeah, after reading a thread here I tried to get the most broken one out and it came right out. Unfortunately, Toyota wants $40 + tax for just one vent. I'll try to figure out where on here I can find anyone parting out parts. Thanks for the feedback!

I replaced my recently. I was lucky to find a member who had some. The one thing I found is when I put in the vents they were really loose. I bought some nylon washers from Lowes and put 2 on one side and one on the other and if fit in really snug. Here is the link that shows what I used.
