Thanks Burgman, the idea of foam tape could be an answer. I believe that Grizzly has done the change and was hoping to hear from him. I think that the shape of the '03 is the same as the '02, just the vanes are attached to the vent body and not separate so there had to be a way of keeping it in place.
