Removing vents on a 2012
 
Can anyone with a 2012 tell me how to remove the air vents. On my 2010 you just turn them and they pop out. I tried this with my 2012 and I can't seem to turn them. Have they change how to remve them.

So is there a trick to removing them.

You have to stick a screw driver in a hole at the top if you take them out without doing that the clip brakes.(ask me how I know this)

Busted one now when you turn the vent the whole thing turns

Yea. The 2011 JK's have the same setup. Took me a bit to figure out but luckily I didn't break anything.

Do you need to take the vent out to remove the side panel. I am going to intall my CB radio.

I'd like to get an idea of where to mount one
in the limited space of the dash area of the '12 JKU.
