Vento with illuminated air vents! Now with Pictures!

[mattrobinson1982]

Hi all, I've just taken in a 1993 Vento GL for breaking and it has illuminated dashboard airvents, dash is a slightly different style to standard MK3 - curvier! Will get some pictures tomorrow but I can't find any information on illuminated Vento / Mk3 dashboard vents. Were they rare?

Any help will be appreciated!

Ooooo... I'm intrigued, I'm guessing this didn't start off as a UK registered vehicle.

Ill take it lol!

I have seen slightly different dashes in pictures of ventos before, first time I have heard mention of illuminated air vents however.  Intrigued, get some photos up!!!

Interesting thought, will look at logbook later and get some pictures up! Looks like the actual soft part of the dash is the same it's just the parts that screw to it that are different. Ie the centre vent, speedo trim and drivers vent is all one piece rather than the 3 separate parts it normally is!

This is just a GL. Took the whole lot out including loom, dash was beige though so passenger vent is a dark beige colour....

I've been rooting around on UK, Yank & sauerkraut eBay sites and still haven't found anything like mentioned here.

is the set up for sale mate ?

[mattrobinson1982]

yeah its for sale; was going to put it on eBay...

Here's a few pics...







the set up includes all the air vents, wiring loom, light switch, dial surround, and blanks. Not usre if the dash itself is different but can include that too if needed ( its dark beige )
