Default A/C vent

My g/f broke the little rectangular with chrome accent piece off of the passenger air vent. The one that controls the air direction. I can't seem to find the part number for it. How exactly do I replace this? It looks like it's made of 2 or 3 clips that snap together.

i believe you have to go buy the whole vent, your local lexus dealer will tell you what part # it is

Thanks. Looks like its going to cost $100. A whole lot better than $550 the dealership was asking installed. So it looks like the whole vent just pops right on out?

In all honesty, I've never removed mine so I can't really say with certainty that it just pops out on a GS. I can say that's the way most of them are made. Just be careful to get the right color you need. I don't know what color your vents are but getting the wrong color would just suck. I am sure somebody on the site has removed their vents and can help you out. I think some of the guys on here just tear their cars apart for the fun of it just to put it back together but some of them appear to be quite good at it as a result.
