i have them turned in the direction they need to be to get heat to me and heat to the side windows so they dont fog up.

I go vertical, looks better IMO, just my opinion though.

(//) (\\) (//) (\\) Angled. I find that way is the best way to get air to hit right on your face.

my buddy always puts one horizontal when i get out of the car cause he knows it pisses me off cause i lock the doors and look in and im like u ass. Im sad to say i will unlock the car and fix the vent. Same thing if people are in the back and dont push the seat back when they get out. I like the seat placed back to original thank u. haha all in good fun tho

I'm assuming you meant 4th gen, and no they dont have the round vents that he is talking about.

can we get technical joe??:D the 92-95 4th gens dont have them, but the better 4th gens do:P
Oh. and my vents are all over the place, but usually at about a 45 degree angle, outside ones towards the doors, middle two towards me:)

Mine are similar... (//) (=) (=) (=) (\\)
Slanted on the outside, horizontal in the middle. Unless of course they're being used to direct air someplace in particular. :lol:
Yes, I'm that anal.

Ive got this going on right now
( / / ) ( \ \ ) ( = ) ( X )
(the x means its turned up so the vent is effectively closed)
My gf who is pretty much my only passenger, has the vent closed since she doesnt like direct air on her (not that my a/c or heat works very well, anyways)
I have the ones closest to me angled toward my chest/arms and the middle one points straight back, but angles down so it hits my right arm a bit.
Mine dont spin anymore like they used to since I painted the avtual vent part black (yea the charcoal grey was annoying me)
so there goes my spinny vent fun :(

I have mine pointed towards my hands in the winter and toward my chest in the summer. My heater does not operate in the "both" mode. It's either vents or floor.

Vertical, My buddies always spin mine too but one of my friends always manages to pinch his fingers in them so it gives me a good laugh.

x means its broken...my sweatshirt pocket got caught one day cleaning and pulled the adjuster lever really far over and snapped it off so it doesnt really adjust, its kinda stuck.

Wow, a whole thread about vent positions!! Who would have thought!! Mine are (//) (||) (||) (@) The last one is broke and if you turn the blower on high and give the vent a good spin it will keep spinning. It spun for about 10 minutes one time before it stopped!! :-D

Except I usually hang my cell phone on a clip from the 2nd one from the right so it sits pretty much facing up and down in the closed position.

Mine are angled, except they are facing away from me 95% of the time. I can't stand having the air blow directly at me...dries out my contacts. :(
