How to take out E70 passenger side air vent?

Hello,

How to take out passenger side air vent?
Air direction changing knob fell off and need to take out the vent to put them back in, but no clue how to take it part… no screws? Just pulls out?

you pop out the trim underneath it and you'll find a screw or two holding the vents in. Undo the screws and the vent will pull right out. I did this about 8 months ago, so my memory isn't the clearest, but it was really pretty straightforward once you realize you can just pull off the trim piece underneath it

Yes, one screw under the trim. Then after removing you can take the vent apart and reattach the knob to the sliding part. Just had to go through the same last week.
