It is the little **** that allows me to change the direction of the air coming out from the cabin vents. Two of those little *****/handles have fell off recently and I can no longer move around the direction of the air flow unless I stick a pen or something in there.
What is the name of this part and where can I find it?
I'm sure you can give the local dealer a call and see if they can provide the number. I was able to get a few part numbers from my local dealer a while back. If not, maybe check out some of the junk yards close by? Good luck.
Can anyone else confirm that I can't buy the little clips alone?
Yep, you can't buy the clips by themselves, they only come as part of the vent assembly (technically, the Instrument Panel Registry Assembly NO. 2). There are four different versions of the assembly, the one you need will depend on your interior color and model year. The part numbers are 55660-30410-C0; 55660-30410-E0; 55660-30411-C0; 55660-30411-E0 – all are available for $167 at Lexuspartsnow.
