Replaced Passenger Side Floor Vent

I noticed after gettig the car home that the passenger side floor air vent was missing.
I contacted Blake at http://www.vwparts4sale.com/ and ordered a black one from a totaled Golf in their inventory.
$15 shipped....got it in about 4 days.  Not bad.

Installed it a day later..it just "pops" in with a plastic expanding pin.  This pin was a little worn and it took a bit of muscle to get it to pop in.  It came out once and if it comes out again, I'll just epoxy it in.
