M3 Air Con Vent Tabs

kosz888 · 11-05-2017, 04:29 PM

Has anyone had to replace the vent tabs on the air conditioner of their M3's?
The two middle ones just fell apart over the week end.

Search it, there is a clip on one that I have used, just can't recall the site. Works ok.

Yeah, I've already had a look at https://www.venttabs.com which is in the USA though I would like to see if anyone has fixed the tabs them selves or through bmw locally.

Yeh I recommend it as well. You have to pull the dash otherwise, which is way overkill lol

mines fallen apart as well, drivers side, but i clip my phone on there so the vent is always closed. Now the tabs gone, it's actually better for the phone holder hahaha.

thanks guys, ill be going with the https://www.venttabs.com option as i would image BMW dealerships would charge much more.

Buy enough to replace all of them , cos the rest will fall apart eventually . I have had to replace 3 on the dash so far .
