A/C vents on dash of 64's

["WC Roddick" <roscoe1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What we did for our "falling" vents, was cut a piece of thin-wall black (black interior) rubber vacuum tubing into about 1/2" long sections, then sliced them down the center so they became "U"s instead of an "O"s.  We then wedged them into the corners where the vents go into their "boxes", with the inside curves wrapped around the vent's outer corners.

 

They act like little bushings and the vents stay put.

I usually see them with a little piece of cardboard wedged into the side. Not very pretty, but it does the job.

With the A/C on, often the windshield fogs or "ices up" where the cold
air contacts the glass.  Yet, if I pull the vents to the upright
position, they won't stay.  Of course, I've only had the car 10 years. I
don't move too fast!!

Is there a practical as well as aesthetic solution to this?
