How to Install Range Rover Side Vents

Tools Needed: 10mm Socket or wrench
Time Required : 30~45 min. for pair


Step 1

Open the hood and locate the screw on the top of the vent.


Step 2

Reach the bottom of the lower panel (the panel underneath of the vent) and pull hard towards you. The panel (made of plastic) is flexible and fastened by clips.


Step 3

Do not take off completely. It will make you difficult to put it back.


Step 4

Remove the top screws using 10mm socket or wrench.


Step 5 & 6

Locate the bottom screw and remove it using 10mm socket or wrench.


Step 7

Remove the vent.


Step 8

Removed.


Step 9

Compare the new Supercharged (A) and original (B) vent.


Step 10

Remove the back panel from the Supercharged vents. They would not fit without removal.


Step 11

Back panel is removed.


Step 12

Install the new Supercharged vent (Installation is a reversal of removal).


Step 13

Push back the lower panel securely.


As Gordon Ramsay would say DONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only reason i expanded on your thread Ken , was because the neighbour pulled the bottom plastic cover fully off as in stage 3 and had one hell of a time trying to get it back on, so it was mostly to advise any other member in case the same happened to them.

Sorry if it sounded as if i was using the Lawnmower.................... Thumbs Up
