you actually have to put some muscle into it, but there are little tabs on the clip that u push down. once u get some leeway on them, you can yank the whole thing out.

Its more difficult, but possible. The right hand side is hard with the reservior so close to the vent.

i took the side grill vents out and it looked kinda funny since one side had nothing and the other side had the windshield wiper fluid reservoir (which was white). i took the whole reservoir out and painted it black. it came out looking pretty good IMHO.
