Today when my dad was driving the max he tried to move the A/C vent and broke it in the process, how would i go about replacing it??? Do i have to remove the whole center console to get to it or can i just pop it out??

Just pop it out. This may be done with a small flat-blade screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver blade between the lower right hand corner of the plastic dashboard clock panel and the adjacent softer dash board. Slowly pry the panel up. Continue this at all four corners of the contoured panel until the metal snaps which anchor the panel are loose. Remove the panel by pulling outward and downward.

The center vent is not a cheap part. I had mine replaced under warranty when I broke it when doing my stereo install. Well, the dealer didn't know that. Anyways, the center vent stack runs around $120.
