Air Con Vent Issue

Postby Missy » Thu Apr 19, 2012 3:40 pm

Hey all,

I have found that i am having the same problem in my NB as i did with my NA air con vents.
They do not stay in place.

Has anyone found a good solution to this issue?

I welcome any suggestions 8)

The velvet patches inside have worn.
Thread string through, give it a sharp yank to remove, install new patches (not too thick obviously), pop vents back in.

The soft side of stick on velcro works well.
