Stumbled across this picture somewhere online and really like the look of the air vents.



Any ideas what they are out of? Is this a photo of the new fiorino with the massive fiat badge on the bonnet? They look pretty factory fit, and the photo doesn't look like a snap of a modified van/mpv.

Well found the vents, they are off a punto sport, and it looks like the picture could be a photo shop job
As alot of the punto parts are interchangeable, it's possible that the vents may fit.
I have changed one of my vents as one of the flaps was missing main dealer part [£13+vat] and thats a complete vent!
The vent just pull out

Yeah, Punto sport look like the ones. Have seen that Puntos use (or at least did) the same vents as Fiorinos. Just took a wild punt and bought two Fiat 500 vents off ebay. The chrome ring is a little bigger, and I'm not sure I like them as much as the sport vents.... Oh well, if I don't like them, or they don't fit I can always bung them back on the 'bay! Might take a trip down to my local fiat parts desk on Monday.

I rather fancy putting a dial/gauge of some sort in one of the ports above the gear-shifter but not sure what to install. A decent visible clock might be a start!
I did find (during a long ebay trawl) a dual gauge that showed something like oil temp on a circumferential gauge and a digital voltage readout across the centre and I had half an idea to install that setup onto an analogue clock in the same housing... I may be wrong but isn't there a DIN standard for dial sizing? It may just co-incide with air-vents :confused:

The vents in your pic are round. On my Qubo they are NOT round- so is it a new design, or maybe a different car dash you've found?

My Qubo vents the same shape as the ones shown in the link, i.e. round bezel with rounded rectangular vents.

The gear shift in the top photo looks like a 6 speed manual - could this be another Picasso masterpiece? ;)

The latest Qubo brochure ( download from here: http://www.fiat.co.uk/uk/fiat-qubo/accessories) shows a red Qubo with red surrounds to the vents,tweeter speakers and the elec window controller.

Do you have a new design dash, we have not seen before
But regarding the vent it dose appear the vents are a generic item

These are the ones we are on about.

Ha! You have been doing some internet digging!! Still, I think that the punto vents will fit as they use the same crappy door type vents as in the fiorino.

Now that you've found the original picture it does look pretty obvious that the wheel has been photoshopped on!

Yep, i'm sure your right, are you going to get a punto one and try it?
