Default Tightening the defrost vents...

I'm one of the people who is having the dashboard rattle problem. It rattles pretty badly around 2.5k RPM or so, especially under load. It seems to be coming from around the center of the dashboard. One of the forum members thinks it might be coming from the defrost vents. I touched the vent and it does seem like there is a little more give than there should be, so with it being hard plastic, it makes sense that it could make some noise if it's moving back and forth. There is a disc-shaped object on the vent... is this something you pop off with a flatblade screwdriver to access the screw or nut or bolt or whatever? I don't want to risk scratching the dash if it doesn't do what I think it does.
