Thanks Big Jim
The only other option was too see if i can just remove the fins/blades that have already broken off but are still hanging on from one side, i'll live with the fact that i won't be able to adjust the air flow up or down on driver side but still retain left to right adjustment.
Anyway, how easy is it to remove the trim? where do i search for the snap in, or screw/bolt in points?
sorry, if the questions have been hashed over, but i tried SEARCH but found no how to's.
