WHAT DOES THIS PART DO?
This dashboard ventilation outlet is positioned at the front-left passenger side of the dashboard. It forms part of the vehicle's cabin HVAC air-distribution system, directing conditioned or heated airflow from the dashboard ducting into the passenger compartment.
The vent assembly provides the physical outlet and directional control for cabin airflow. Typical replacement reasons include broken fins, damaged adjustment mechanisms, cracked trim, loose mounting points, cosmetic deterioration or damage during dashboard work.
WHY BUY A FACTORY COMPONENT?
A correctly matched factory-manufactured component was engineered around the vehicle's original dashboard geometry, mounting arrangement, duct interface, appearance and operating clearances.
Cheap reproduction parts can vary in moulding quality, material, dimensions, surface finish and mounting accuracy. A quality recycled factory component allows you to retain the vehicle's original design while avoiding unnecessary new-component manufacturing.
COMPATIBILITY — READ BEFORE ORDERING
| Vehicle | Year | Position | Verification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Proton Savvy | 2012 source vehicle | Front Left / Passenger | Photo / markings / VIN verification required |
The donor VIN, chassis designation and usable manufacturer part number are not supplied in the source listing. We will not invent compatibility. Please compare the original component, mounting arrangement, shape, finish and every visible stamped/moulded reference with the listing photographs before purchase.
BODY VARIANT CHECK
Similar-looking components can differ according to body configuration, production revision, trim specification and dashboard design. The source data available to us does not independently establish a 3-door/5-door fitment distinction for this item.
Please verify your exact vehicle and component before ordering.
WILL NOT FIT / EXCLUSION LIST
- Vehicles where the original vent shape or mounting arrangement differs.
- Opposite-side / driver-side dashboard positions.
- Vehicles with a different dashboard revision or interior specification.
- Any application relying solely on an automated compatibility suggestion without physical verification.
- Any vehicle for which the VIN/part references establish a different component.
Do not order because the component merely looks similar. Compare your existing part against the listing photographs and physical reference points first.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
The following is general workshop guidance for a dashboard vent assembly. Exact removal procedure can vary with dashboard specification.
- Park safely, switch the ignition off and protect surrounding dashboard trim.
- Inspect the vent perimeter and identify the original retaining method before applying force.
- Use a suitable non-marring trim tool to release accessible trim or retaining clips.
- Remove any relevant retaining screws where fitted.
- Withdraw the existing vent carefully without damaging the surrounding fascia or ductwork.
- Inspect the air duct, locating tabs and mounting points for previous damage.
- Compare the replacement component directly against the removed part before installation.
- Align the replacement with its duct/mounting location and engage all locating points evenly.
- Refit any fasteners or trim removed during access.
- Operate the vent direction/airflow controls and check that the assembly sits securely.
Typical Tools
