Thanks,
Vents can stay in place but frame must be removed.

I've seen some suggestions that the frame can be unscrewed and removed whole and looking at the part diagrams etc. supports this idea but I've never seen anyone actually do that - they usually just dremel it out.

Certainly the frame is made separately and fitted during assembly (or not in the case of Nav. fitted cars) so it should come out...
