You need to force the vents down pretty hard, just put your hand on it and pull hard  .
I got mine from www.crazyleds.co.uk but the site seems to be down , unless I've got the address wrong

They wont do the heater controls.
They will do the dash and MFD.

My dials seemed to have gone back fine, as has the centre console bits, my heater vents are a bit different to how they were before though and i had about 5 screws left over after putting my dash back together (but i did have it all out for spraying bits and pieces )
how mine looked

the heater takes some fiddling, I finally got round to replacing the blown bulbs in mine after having the car over a year - they never worked when i bought it lol - very fiddly, don't plan on doing that again

The headlight unit and all that, i bought a seperate one that had all the work done, was told it was easier than trying to do it myself since the LED's are incorporated inside.
And i agree, it was easier to just buy a new unit and swap them over.
Cost me about £14 i think 
Found a pic of the bulbs i got (and free keyring )
