Here's the instructions to remove right fresh air grille (I guess it's not so fresh, right now).

There's also instructions for PRELIMINARY WORK required to remove the decorative strip around the fresh air grille and the dash. The instructions for the right fresh air grille decorative strip says to follow the instructions for the left fresh air grille...it is the same except "mirrored".

I've done it a few times with my Android screen install - it is not too bad. And if you are in a quick in and out - I don't even uninstall the connectors. I tie a string around the rear view and just tie it up out of the way for a few minutes while I am in there and saves the connector disconnects and possible broken connectors.

If you have the room anyway.
