today i painted the bezel around the cd player, and where the vents are, and i realized after I had them all done, that i shouldn't have painted the actual vents themselves because they are just rubbing off paint, if i take them out and soak them in laquer thinner or somthing, would it work? also, i couldn't figure out how to take them out, i thought of that before i painted but ohwell, did come out nice...

ok thanks kristen, do you know if the vents themselves pop out of the housing? I didn't want to force it and end up with broken parts.

the vents push in from the back of the dash panel. the gauge bezel ones are easy but i think you have to remove the entire dash to get to the ones above the stereo. I just painted some of the pieces in mine a nice green but decided to forgo the vents for now. too much work.Ron<br /><br />Green 95 Firebird 3.4 M5<br />Plugs, wires, wheels, tires<br />Homemade CAIComment

to clarify, the clips for the vents have to be accessed from the back of the dash. you can reinstall them by just pushing them through from the front.Ron<br /><br />Green 95 Firebird 3.4 M5<br />Plugs, wires, wheels, tires<br />Homemade CAIComment

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 11:30 PM
