Bit of a strange one, but does anyone know if you can get replacement (ie. better) Airvents? When I am driving, the centre airvents do not move all the way over to the right to blow air on me. It works correctly, and I can feel air flowing (but missing the driver completely). Therefore I only get airflow from the right-hand-side airvent, which is not enough for the recent English summer which just passed.

Thanks

Dear Mark,
I would recommend you contact your nearest Porsche wrecker first.
Ciao,

Hoorah, I thought it was just me that got exasperated at not being able to direct the centre vent onto my face. It is like having an itch that you can't scratch, you can feel the nice cool air blowing about 5cm from your left ear, but unless you adopt a demented driving position there is no way you can benefit from it!!

I would love to hear if you are successful in your quest Mark, unless the solution is to go and buy a 964 with aircon (which crossed my mind in the sweltering heat somewhere south of the Alps a couple of weeks ago!!!!).

Centre vent in the 993 is exactly the same, doesn't adjust far enough to the right. I don't think replacing the vent is going to help...

Bring this thread back up - has anyone come up with an idea for this? Before I embark on an adventure with a vent from the salvage yard and some engineering...

Its a poor design.When you look inside it you can see why most of the air only comes out of one side of the vent.

Would also love a solution myself.
