I have a 2005 Hyundai Sonata 2.4l gl. I need to replace a broken air vent on the passenger side dash board. I cannot find a procedure anywhere on how to do it. I was hoping someone could help
I've never had to replace a vent on your particular model but I have replaced them on other older Hyundai and they are usually secured with screws from behind the dash meaning the dash needs to be removed to replace them. Personally, I think that's more trouble than it's worth on a 14 year old car.
Correct. 3 screws (top, left, right) securing the vent to the dash, one screw from bottom securing air duct to vent.
I'd try:
remove glovebox (6 screws, 5 minutes of work), vent should then be accessible behind dash. Remove screw that holds the air duct. Pull duct off vent. Then see if your hands are small enough to get in there to undo the other 3 screws. If not, put everything back and forget about it ...
