Default Front Center Vent rattle

Does anyone know how to remove the front windshield vent? I believe this is the cause of the rattling noise coming from the front centre speaker area. When I drive and i hold the vent specially, it stops.

Thanks

I have the same problem, I have taken it to the dealer a couple times and have tried myself (half-assed mind you) to fix it but it didn't work. What you need is some fairly thick glue backed felt to put around the edges. All you do to remove it is pop it out from the front (the side closet to you), and pull it up. I used one of those small flathead screwdrivers ad wedge it in and pulled it out. Hope it helps.

I had the same problem. After 4 visits to the dealer, they finally replaced it with a new one, now its gone.
