Replacing the pods is a good reason to do this job, but if you're in the mood of avoiding the work for that reason, and only the center vent pod is the problem, then you can pull the center dash vent grill, and reach in with a spare exhaust doughnut and force the door open permanently, leaving the doughnut between the door and the heater core. Pull the instrument cluster, remove screw on left side of vent grill, open glove box and remove screw on right side of vent grill, use 5mm (or 4mm?) hex key to loosen the screw inside the vent grill assembly that connects the open / close dial to the manual door, and you can get to the place to install the doughnut.
