Is there any way to get more air into the side vents for the defroster? At full blast i get nothing noticeable out of them.

Yeah they suck. They clear up like an inch worth of the window.

When is the last time you replaced your cabin air filter?

If that is saturated or the box wet it will just blow humid air into your car on the "vent" settings. (we lack a true on/off switch for the A/C )
Many stubborn fogging or lack of defogging problems are caused by water in the intake vent areas.

I'll be removing the filter tonight just to see if it makes a difference. I'll report back then.

I replaced my filter at 70,000 miles (which had obviously never been changed) right after i bought the car and the side vents are still junk. i can't even feel air blowing out of them.
