Re: POLL: How do you position your 94+ Interior Air Vents??
I make an + with mine. Making an X sounds pretty cool too, I've never even thought of it. But the better question is, what do you do to keep them from falling? Mine never stay where I put them. Maybe I'll try putting some felt or something around the outside, I wonder if that would help hold them in place.

I usually have the vents rotated so it is the + look.<p>you can actually take off the gauge surround and unscrew the vents from the back side. Then just apply some new felt. Upon reassmenbly of the vent ball, you will be able to feel the difference.
Which reminds me, I should do mine again once I get back the car....<p>cheers,

Good idea on replacing the felt. My vents just point down and never stay where I put them.

Nothing else in the dashboard is in a + or X pattern.. everything's curvy... <p>I keep it in the X position ... it's a subliminal message to all the ladies who I happen to stalk.... er... wait for so I can give them a ride. <p>X( )X X X <p>get it?

i usually just have them at what ever angle they end up being at but when i hit a little bump they all end up hitting the floor and i have to reposition them.

(i'm still waiting to do that one!) <p>Here's a pic of what it would look like. Oh and BTW this mod is only for 94 and up<p>
