This is a replacement AC center grille air vent push tab for the Mercedes-Benz R129 interior climate control system, replacing OEM A1298300354.

Description

The air vent push tab allows the driver and passenger to direct airflow from the center console. Over time, the factory plastic tabs become brittle from UV exposure and cabin heat, leading to cracking or snapping off completely.

Common Symptoms of Failure

Inability to adjust the direction of airflow from the center vent.
Missing or snapped push tab on the dashboard grille.
Loose or detached internal louvers inside the vent housing.

Maintains the original factory appearance of the dashboard.

Compatibility

Mercedes-Benz R129 (1989–2001)
Please verify your OEM part number before purchasing.
