This is not the hardest part. Connecting the pin afterwards, is worse. To avoid all this, I pop out the vent instead while leaving the pins in the connector. There are about 6 taps that hold the vent to the trim. You could pry them loose with a screw driver. It takes a little time and patience but it is so much easier than trying to connect the pins with a needle nose in a space that is about the size of a quarter.
