A/C sliding knob replacement
 

Both of my sliding knobs are broken.
They are still sitting in the slots,
but come off, with some pieces still inside.
I bought two new replacement knobs.
Do you have to remove the entire center console to replace them?
I was going to try and remove the broken pieces with a tweezer, try to keep the copper colored clip in place and try and put the new knobs in.
does the face plate of the heater/A/C control come off without removing the whole center console?

I just finished pulling my Control head out. The ac vent pulls right out with pliers, gently, then the black border piece comes off carefully, then 4 screws hold the whole unit in and two for the ac button panel.
The hardest part is getting the wire clips off and back on.

my 2 vents and border came off as one unit.
I don't see any screws.
Just the two top bolts that hold the console.

You did not go far enough.
Pull the trim off, be carefull not to break it. Outlined in white.
Then take out the screws underneath it. Red marks.
