Design matters at this scale
A vent tab has to snap into place, clear the louver movement, stay aligned, and feel natural under a fingertip. That is why small design choices can decide whether the repair feels permanent or improvised.
Precision protects the original dash
The goal is to restore directional airflow while keeping the factory vent housing and dashboard trim intact. The part should work with the existing vent rather than make the customer remove the whole assembly.
