63 Dart defroster vents

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Has anyone had any experience with these defroster vents:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/170896479115...84.m1423.l2649

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good product?

I am painting the car B5 so they will need to be repainted, is this a problem?

Thanks folks!
John

"This listing () has been removed, or this item is not available."

I got a set of dash vents from a junkyard, lightly sanded the oxidized plastic, scuffed the rest, and painted them with satin burgundy Krylon Fusion. That color and texture kind of complemented the other reds in my interior. The rest of the interior looks like heck, but the vents are fine.

Fancier paints might require an adhesion promoter or some such voodoo.

These are the same vents used on most 70s-early90s Ram trucks and vans.

Are the Defroster Hoses a Total Pain in the Ass to change, or is it just me? Why in the world would they make the outlet from the heater box (2) different sizes?

Dan,
By now you know that Mother Mopar moved in mysterious ways! I think the short answer is "because they could.":lol:
But, as always, I might be wrong!:shock:

I am a Huge Fan of the Slant 6 and I really like the 904 transmissions, but the rest of the Mopar Mystique is going to have to grow on me.
