Who sells the AC vent repair kits now?

[By-Tor 0]

Hello all,

Long time Corrado Owner, but I'm new to the forum here.  The dash vents on my 1991 have deteriorated and now flap around.  I see that there were 3D printed kits made to fix them for many years, but I can't find anyone that still sells them.  Is there a better fix that made the others obsolete, or was there just not enough demand to keep selling them?  Where is the best place to get them now? 

Worst case, is there a 3D printer file that I can get and have them made for me?  

Thanks in advance!

If it's just the up/down function that's flapping about, pull the vent out and you'll see a metal insert where the tabs are. It's removable so take it out and close it up a touch with some pliers. It'll put a bit more tension on the mounting points to make it firmer/tighter in its movement.

If it’s early, I imagine you’re asking about the lower strip/clip that allows the vent to move side to side simultaneously ?

Yes, someone did 3D print them, but not seen them for a while.

Maybe give James at Corrado Graveyard a shout ?

Bet he’s got loads.
