there's a DIY on here about how to remove that center vent. I think the DIY is for replacing the cracked vent, same procedure.

all else fails.... hammer and chisel.

You can always cover them in suede or fake suede.

I did it on my car, and love the look. I'll probably end up doing some parts of the doors to make it match.

The suede is a PITA to work with, as it doesn't really stretch at all like vinyl does but it looks good when you get the hang of it.

Did you not use a steamer to loosen the suede?
