Air Vent Covers....Location: on the hood close to windows and mirrors...



They must be stick on...can't detect any screws or openings(snug)..nothing in the hummer threads or manual...any thoughts on how to take them off without damaging covers or original paint







I was thinking heat gun..but it is plastic-chrome?



Thanks for any ideas

They are pull off. Same type of fastener as door panels (white plastic screws with fins, push in ) you can remove them either by pulling upward ou using a plastic tool to pry then off. there should be 4 per side. Image
