Could anyone suggest what else I could use instead of buying the hooks listed on Comand online for £24. My car is a W204 with NTG version. Any ideas would be appreciated. xixal
See if you can grab the vents and pull, you are just pulling on some friction clips. But, if you have an Audio-20 peel up the sticky-back-plastic on the "shelf" above in front of the display as it is stuck to the vent and makes it impossible to remove.
Do not pull on the bits that move though, or they will break off.
Or cut up a coat hanger and bend the ends - although it may be a bit thick
The hooks in this case are only being used to grab hold of some holes in the side of the vents so you can pull them out - they are not like the radio release keys that operate a latch
