Where the vents are held on to on the back of the wood trim. I can't seem to separate the vent from the wood trim.

Well, shoot me over some pics of where your imperfection is. Maybe I can get an idea what you're doing and tell you what's up.

Oh I snapped one the first time i did it and then from there I kinda just was really careful. At any rate, just as long as you have one functional clip you'll be aight. lol

Oh, the ones on the top and bottom? I didn't disassemble it from there. Those clips don't take the whole thing off.

Geezes ahah I tried and no luck so I just didn't remove the vents completely from the wood trim and now the corners are lifted.

Ya those hidden looking clips if they are clips? All I know is they are holding the vents to the back of the wood trim. Then what will remove the whole vent?

Well, damn I don't know if we're talking about the same thing. If you have a picture of the back, I can point it out. Unfortunately I didn't take any pics as I was going along.
