- How can I remove the defrost plastic piece? Does it not come off or do you have to cut it? Where can I buy an aftermarket part to replace everything?
I'm doing this to clean up all the layers of dust and junk that are in the vent tubing. Will also change the blower motor and heater core.
This is called the air distribution system.
Please Help
Thanks

Well my comment is probably too late but the way to get it out is to tuck the corner of the driver's side vent underneath the speedometer cable grab the far end of the passenger side vent and lift up in a counter clockwise motion. The plastic on the driver vent will flex but it will come loose.
That's the ticket, getting it at the right angle. Also, you may have to use some carefuldirect pressure to get it to "pop" loose
I've check what I can get my hand to but still nothing it's coming out of all the vents but very little with the switch on full blast
Hows it goin Barry I was wondering if u can answer a question for me since u took your dash apart.the problem I'm having is I got very little air coming from all the vents when I turn the a/c on I just want it to blow out of the vents I've checked the blower motor it's good all the vacuum lines that I can see are good I just can't figure it out if u got any ideas of what could be the problem I would really appreciate it
What kind of a car or truck is this happening in? Sounds like something is being blocked right by the heater core. Or a vent is stuck shut. Need more info.
After you moved the speedo cable towards the windshield, did it come out ?
Say what? It is held in by a retaining clip as I remember. If it is the mechanical cable then it should pop out easily by a clip. Is that what you mean?
What are you trying to do? Remove the dash? Remove the gauge cluster?
I think I just might have to take the dash out do u have a video on how to remove it
Nope not really there are forums with written instructions. Check s10forums.com
Check the door vent vacuums and make sure they work or the vacuum lines are not cut or anything. I put my dash back in and the vents wouldn't change correctly cuz I had the lines wrong on the 2 door vent actuator things. Check that out. Also my right vent doesn't have very much air coming out either. And they are all clean and working. I think it is just like that.
Sorry it's a 1990 gmc Sonoma 4.3 sle
Going to have to check the vents path and see if there is something blocking. Which I would assume you did already. If it is only coming out of the defrost vents that means the flapper right behind the stereo is stuck open or something I think. I took my dash apart to replace the firewall padding not for vent issues. But mine are clean like brand new right now which is another thing I wanted to do. Gonna have to take stuff apart. Take the stereo out and the big plastic part the stereo mounts to and that should give you a lot of space.
