My CX-3 comes with black bezels on the air vents. I would like to change them to red to add a spash of colour to go with the red on the door cards and centre console.

Does anyone know if these can be removed without dismantling the whole dash?

cheers folks.
Car sold - but still following Mazda.

I’m sure I had the pdf somewhere but it eludes me at the moment. Just looked in the parts catalogue and they are £119 each if that helps you make your mind up though?

How much time is spent staring at the air vent bezels? I can think of better ways of spending £238.

Not upset but I do think negative comments aren't exactly helpful. Take this post for instance. They want to customise part of their car for their own pleasure and enjoyment, want some advise and instead get well that's a waste of money.

We all have our own preferences and tastes, let's keep the forum helpful and informational and not turn into one of those forums full of flaming and jibes.

No offence was intended. Each to his own, I say.
I am happy to spend money on cosmetic improvements to my classic car, but my CX-3 is a tool of everyday transport and nothing more.

I’ve got the instructions now. You basically need to destroy them but I’ll post it up later.
