Why don't you get some colour coded vents which will cost you about £60 off ebay and handles as stated from the stealer which you can order colour coded for about £85 and you'll save yourself the paint bills

From experience of changing my handles/evnts only a couple of weeks ago, its a fairly simple task, just be careful of breaking the clips on the handle caps as stated in other posts. Vents are fairly easy to take out without breaking the clips!

If you have the correct tools then vents 5 minutes each max

What tools? You don't need any at all, they just pop out and pop back in if you release the corners in the right order!

Yes you will,

Ive ordered the grill. Will you stock the black handles or will they need to be ordered in also?

You need as minimum a trim removal tool or very flat blade to pop the retaining clips

I changed the colour coded vents on my last RRS back to the standard issue without using any tools, BUT you have to start in the right place and then they will come out very easily without popping any clips or potentially damaging the paintwork. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Yep , managed to sort the vents out. Very easy when you know how. Thanks Jaymann...

Also , does anybody know of a reasonable garage that can fit my handles , in North London or close???
