I need to order it on aliexpress just to test it out but I wonder if these are just this https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLZyLpY pre installed onto a new vent. Need to ask the factory if they'd just sell the left side piece.

I dont think this is the same part. One i have is not double side taped cf on oem part. Its actually one piece that is made together.

Ordered mine on 10/1, and IND had it in my hands on 10/2 - damn, that's service right there. Granted, I'm in Chicago and so is their warehouse, but still.

Vent was a bit of a pain to pop off, trying to be very careful with my trim tools - easiest if you actually pry the outboard dash panel (that meets the door as it closes) away slightly, that helps to release the very large tab on the left side of the vent so it can all be eased out. Then it's just a direct replacement, easy as can be, all snaps back together the way it came out. And the CF is a dead ringer for the rest of the interior, you'd never know it wasn't OEM.
