Default Defroster Vent Grill Removal
I am attempting to track down a rattle inside my 2004 C5 coupe and would like to remove the plastic defroster vent grill on top of the dash pad. Anyone know how to remove this? Thanks in advance.

There are two 7 or 8mm screws (one on each side) that must be removed. Lift up vent slightly and remove each sensor from the vent. Remove vent.

Are the screws in the top or underneath? I just noticed that one side of my vent is loose and I need to take a look at is as well.

thanks
