Air Conditioner Side Vents

Air Conditioner Side Vents
Both the side vents in my 93 XJS do not blow very strong while the center vent will blow at hurricane force on high. My question is: is that normal?
I replaces the transistor on both blower motor controls and get low, medium, and high speed from the blowers with appropriate temperatures.

The plastic was cut with a dremel and welded together with an old soldering iron to fit into the wood trim. The wood was not modified.
With the air controls on the side the vent was too wide to fit, I had to do and extensive cut and shut to get it to fit and look OEM. The wood trim does hide where I removed the outside flange.

I am looking at a vent system from an XJ6. Measurement being sent. Don't know if it will fit yet. Glad to hear the plastic can be welded with a soldering iron.
Looked at pictures of your car. Beautiful restoration. Be careful of those Yank tourist on the wrong side of the road!
Again thanks for the info

I've read in several places that a double vent (rather than the usual triple vent) from a late-model XJS will basically slip in place if you just use a round file to grind a bit of the dash metal away so the new vent's lugs can fit. This is something I plan on doing myself in the near future. From what I read, welding is not needed.

I replaced my center vent on my 91 conv with the late model one. Very little work to make it look & work correctly . I can't find the part # but I believe Kirby's Book gives the info & # of this vent
