Vent windows are loose

My vent windows are loose so when I try to aim some of that 100 degree florida air in to "cool" me off while I drive the wind just flips the vent around. Is there a way to tighten these up?
Thanks

When you get the door panel off the door you can tighten a screw where the pivot is from that window

If I rmember, there is also a springy metal thing involved in the pivot (so you're not just working with a tightened nut on metal). Who knows, I may be taking all my panels off as I am so frustrated with my window fit and seal.

Ernie D - What part of Florida do you call home. I'm in Palm Beach Gardens, just north of West Palm Beach.

Hey Dick,
I hail from the south side of Orlando. I got to meet another of our crew a couple months back at my local Saturday night cruise in at Old Town in Kissimmee Fla. Frank Lamp had drove his beautiful Sport Fury up from Ft Meyers.

Do you ever make your way up here?

Yea - Once in a while we (our gang of four couples go to Old Town) we go to the Lake Mirror concours in Lakeland every year, saw frank there last year, and I see him at the Sugar Festival in Cleweston every year. Next time I'm up your way I will try and remember to let you know so we can hook up.
