Okay, maybe my desperate sounding thread is a teeny bit exageratted. I only broke the air vents.

I've been trying to clean out the heater system because I swear it doesn't put out enough air through the defogger and warm air ports. Although my father told me this isn't uncommon on Italian cars as the people who design them have trouble appreciating their need to be used in the s**tty British climate.

Anyway, most cars I've been in you just pull the vents off, and this was true for the center ones, but the right and left side came off with a little too much force required - ie part of them snapped. They also have these little clip things which immediately fell off and disappeared into the depths of the heater system.

It now looks a bit stupid without the vents attached, so I'm going to pick up some new ones somehow. My question is...

How do I get the facia off? I can't re-attach them without doing that, at least I can't see any way to. I also want to fit some new front speakers (they're 13cm, right?)

Erm, sorry for the ramble. But I thought it was a fairly amusing thing to do. Did I mention I vacuumed up the clips while trying to clean the heater? No, didn't think so

The heating system in Unos is crap, there's nothing you can do to improve it. You'll pick new vents up from a scrapyard.

As for the facia, invest in a Haynes Manual and it'll show you how.
