Fix for those loose AC Vents - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Here's a fix for your loose AC vents, the ones everybody has a folded up piece of paper wedged in so it stays aimed where you want it.

Take the assembly apart and wrap some tape (however much you need to tighten it up) around the studs the vent hinges on and cut off the excess.

Good tip....I have about $1.75 stuck in my vents to keep em pointed at me
I have rear a/c too so that means even more coins lol

Another suggestion I have seen is to attach the fuzzy half of a strip of adhesive backed velcro to the assembly so that it rubs on the chromed top and bottom part of the vent.
