I wonder if the '03/04 vent has a second screw to hold it in as my '02 vent needs the vanes in place in order to hold it secure. I tried replacing it without the vanes and it kinda flaps loose on the bottom with no mounting or secure point. I will attempt a de-snork now that I know I can remove and replace the vanes and vent body (which means I haven't broken anything yet....)

The pre-02 vent bezels have the same tab in the lower-forward corner that fit onto the fender as the post-02 that Grizzly describes. If you haven't got the tab behind the fender, it will flop around as you describe.
