HVAC center vent
To anyone out there. what keeps the center chrome A/C vent in place? It has a couple of holes on the backside but they are not threaded. My truck did not come with factory air but I installed a factory air dash.Thanks in advance for a answer.

Re: HVAC center vent
I think there were clips that slipped onto the dash.

Re: HVAC center vent
There are studs on the back side of the vent that extend though a plastic diverted and hold the diverter against the back side of the dash.

Re: HVAC center vent
The new one I bought did not have threads in the holes but the studs cut threads in when I screwed them in.

Re: HVAC center vent
#8 is the part that attaches to the face plate and holds it in place on the dash. I don't see the stud listed though.
