hey guys i just noticed that the air vent i teh dash on me VS (the one above the air con switch etc) moves around like its not screwed in etc... i have herd this is a common problem wit age ....how do i fix? do i have to replace the whole dash fascia thing or ? its not like the common thing where the vents itself move around its the whole unit that holds teh vents cheers
The little tags that the screws go through in the surround have a habit of breaking. You will need to another vent assembly and replace it. Easy enough to do. Take the fascia off and undo the screws that hold it in. Is it just the vents themselves or the surround that moves?
yeh the vent assembly/surround moves as one....vents stay where tehy should be (in teh assembly) ...my mates is doing teh same and he said it was some tags out the back that are broken or something cheers
Once you take the fascia off you will see what I mean. There are 3 screws (I think) that hold it. Sometimes the the bits where the screws actually go into in the back of fascia break off. It's only two screws above the speedo and some clips that hold the lot in. You will have to undo the light switch first though by rotating the outer surround.
If you look at this picture http://forums.justcommodores.com.au...02294-upgrade-vn-dash-pad-vr-vs-dash-vent.jpg you will see the tags that the screw holes go thru...I modified it to fit in a vn but it gives you a idea of the tags
