With a recent pictures posted today - this one of the grab handle makes me wonder what part will be exchangeable if you wanted to swap out the blue for another color.

Almost looks like you are tied to the dash color with that part. Guess one wont know till someone unbolts it.. The "grab" portion looks to be an entirely separate part from the "bolted" part.

I think it's just the greyish plastic part. I think swapping them out is easy as pie

I'm surprised an owner hasn't pulled off a grab handle just so we know for sure. I'm positive they're easy to remove, but what part is grab handle and what part is dash? Really hard to tell from that pic, and I didn't take a very close look when I was sitting in a Bronco.

But the vent handles need to be changed as well. Don't those have the color also?
Has anyone tried removing these yet? The blue with brown leather interior on a carbonized grey exterior has to go.

Sadly unless someone makes a sticker overlay I think you have to remove the entire dash to change the vents. They’re about $50 each. Dash removal procedures are on YouTube

Nope! I learned this by accident. I pushed too hard on my vent trying to put a phone holder on it and popped the insert out. When I fixed it I found out you can remove the entire insert by using a screw driver (or similar tool) to pry it out. The swivel points just pop in/out of the dash.

It's super easy to do, so it would be no problem at all to swap with other colors. I might make a short video about it later to help others.

I wonder if after removing the 4 "Bronco" bolts, the piece with the blue stripe can be removed from the rest of the handle? That way, the blue could be changed to something else while keeping the match to the rest of the dash.
Hello no it can not here it is i took mine off to try
