While the ignition is on, put the climate control in Defrost mode. Looking up from the driver's foot well at the heater distribution box, behind the radio, there is a 4 fingered hand that is positioned by a cable and rotates around a screw in the palm. Each of the fingers has a post at the tip that slides in a channel in the white door lever that the finger controls. The longest finger points down and is closest to the seat. If you disengage that post from the white lever, then push the white lever toward the radio the dash vents will be supplied with air whenever the blower is on. To make this permanent, reach in with needle-nosed pliers, grab the finger right above the post and bend the tip away from the distribution box such that the post will now be parallel to the distribution box instead of pointing toward it. That's it.
The supply is still controlled by the individual dash vents. This modification is reversible, but you'll want to remove the hand to do a good job. (Remove the screw and detach the cable end) My wife is thrilled that she can warm her hands in cold weather. Enjoy! Last edited by cdvs; 10-20-2007 at 07:02 PM. |

Re: Full Time Dash Vents
I was just wanting to ask about the dash vents and did a search and this popped up. My wife also hates not having the vents. She thinks the "vent" button should mean the vents instead of outside air.
