Removing GR side vents
 
Has anyone installed or seen the install instructions to know if I can just pop these lame black side vents off that my dealer installed? They look stuck on with adhesive, but I can’t tell for sure.

the side vents are attached with double sided tape.
to remove them you will need to use dental floss or fishing line to cut through the
tape underneath the vinyl. using a heat gun to soften the adhesive (carefully) would help.

Thanks for the feedback. That’s what I figured, but wanted to make sure before I pull them off and I’ve got holes drilled in something.

I saw a Neptune GR without the vents and decided for now to keep them. They’ve grown on me. I do wish they were not piano black though.
