Floppy AC Vents

Any way to tighten the dash vents? Mine seem to reposition any time I traverse anything smoother than new pavement.

Small tap backed felt seems to work. Other then new vents. My r56 had this done and worked.

Thanks again.
Do the vents come out of the dash easily? Or is it more of a 'try to squeeze it in' type of job?

Pivot the round vent and they added the felt to each corner of the part that goes around the vent. On the side that does not move. Or you can put it on the moving side, long ways.
