Default EP3 Air Vent issues. Any one else have it? Fix?

Hi there.

My new EP3 has loose Air vents that fall down and do not stay where I adjust them to. Is this a common problem and any fix ideas? I was thinking maybe try to pull the vents out and put some sticky felt on the sides. I haven't tried removing the vents yet though.

the only time I have noticed this on mine is when I hit a big bump but apart from that not really. This is an interesting question hopefully someone could shed a little light on this one!

I figured I was not the only one lol. I bet I can just pull them out like I did on my EK. Then I could put felt stikers on one, or both sides and bet that wud work. When I try it i'll let you guys know the results.

I fixed my vents and was pretty easy. I took pics but I'm at work so I'll post a diy later. If you know how to remove the vents its easy. I just put some stick on felt tabs on the inside sides of the vent. You just need to make sure you put them so they are out of sight in all positions or will look "ghetto" lol. They are perfect now.
