First owner strikes again. That's how I figured the spring should be. I wasn't quit prepared when it came off. Not knowing there were nuts in the back, I removed it the "hard way", bracket screws first. Discovered the best way is to loosen the nuts, but don't remove them, then remove the screws from the larger bracket.

Good to know I'm not missing anything in regard to the mystery parts on the door vents.

Great pictures..........Thank you for all the info.
