Most just pop off. There really isn't much for them to attach to. Just take close look around the perimeter of the vent to make sure there aren't any screws.

Might be easier to add "Max Airs" to existing vents. Easier, and less chance of new leaks.

I think he's talking about the interior duct vents....at least that's the way I took it.

Thanks
I thought that there was not much to them but wanted to make sure. You would think manufacturers would put those kind in but that would them more. lol

I think the confusion is the "roof" is considered EXTERIOR and your talking about the ceiling which is interior.
Sometimes I think there isn't any rhyme or reason why some vents are only directional and others are fully adjustable.

Okay I popped them off with out damage. Amazing for me. lol Thanks. I probably will have questions. I have owned Class C motor homes but they were about 30yrs old and some stuff worked some didn't. This my 1st "new" and I am learning how to tow and park. At 65 wasn't sure if I wanted to learn how. Took the plunge and glad I did. Only owned this for 1 month.

Ok, so the AC vents just pop out. Does the outer wring stay in place and the part that rotates pop out? I'm famous for breaking things so I need to make sure before I try it. Thanks.

The outer ring should be screwed into the ceiling.
