Default Rear Air Vent removal?

Hi guys ordered a replacement rear centre air vent today as one of my adjusters on mine is missing, it has obviously been kicked off from the back seat passengers and is bugging me, found one that matches my interior trim in cream so ordered it

To replace the unit is it a case of slide it out with a flat head screw driver at the bottom and disconnect everything and swap the parts over to the new air vent unit?

Any tips be great

Do you mean #15 in the illustration below?

If you do, done it loads of times - dead easy: carefully prise off the wooden trim (#16), remove screws (two I think), slide it out, unplug cigarette lighter connections and remove it.
