I found an easy fix for loose dash vents! Take them out and put some of that camper weatherstripping (flat foam with a sticky side) where the factory foam thingy went but peel the plastc strip along the non-sticky side off. Then put them back in and they will stay where you angle them.

There is another way without using glue or sticky foam.
Mine came off and I put it back pretty easy.
Force the outside part (window side) into the dash and then push in the other side (inner side in and it will snap right in.
It worked for me!!!
