Default Vision Vents??

I have been dealing with the black foam in my car for a while, and deal regularly with the windshield fogging up. Most of the time the defroster clears it up, but not always. I got one of the email promotions for the vision vents to fix the issue, but I wanted to know if other people have installed them and if they really worked. thanks!

Vision vents does not "fix" the issue, it is just a bandaid.
A VERY expensive bandaid.
For less than $50 you can actually fix the issue.(blend doors)
Yes, the fix does take longer than covering the defrost vents.
There are several threads here on how to DIY fix the blend doors.
It took me about an hour to fix the one that is access via the frunk, and about 45 minutes to fix the one behind the radio.

IF I didn't want to do the repair myself, I'd rather put the $350 towards three hours of labor at my local Independent for them to do it.

Thumbs up Vision Vents Work for Me

I've had them installed for over two years. OEM-quality product and solves the problem in 5 mins. Yes, you can do the DIY thing, if that is your style. They solve the problem although the root cause are the blender doors that will have to be covered with tape. However, for your purposes, the problem goes away.
