Question 99 XK8 Center AC vent fin replacement

I have loose center AC vent fins and have been told that if the vent is removed, the vents can sometimes be put back in place?
Is there any instruction on how to remove the center panel that has the vents installed. And is the above comment about putting the fins back in place true?
Thanks
Ron

Here is a video from our own Reverend Sam. Not sure if you have gauges or nav unit, but it works for either. Once the panel is off, the rest is just taking out the screws that hold the plates on.


Are your vent bars missing? Mine were out of the slots, but I managed to put them back in place from the front without taking off the fascia. Pair of needle nose pliers, tweezers and lots of patience. They are as good as new now.
