• directing the airflow towards the passenger or the side window,
• maintaining a consistent styling line of the dashboard,
• stable installation in the panel without looseness or unwanted vibrations.

The product features a dedicated OEM part number and related interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with specific vehicle equipment versions. Before purchasing, it is advisable to compare these numbers with the currently installed part or service documentation to ensure full compatibility.

Key benefits of installing this component include:
