I had heard that and the dealer said that. But after looking, they said they had to replace it. The passenger side is curled up (on the vent opening towards the rear of the car) that they didn't feel the kit would work. The curl is about 2 inches higher than the dash. Looks ugly. The technician couldn't push it down by hand.
Whatever though, as long as the dash doesn't rattle and the vent stays in place. I am a little nervous about the dash replacement, so I will be happy as long as it is done well.
Thanks for the reply.
