Anyone else with a '23 notice their front defroster actually works pretty well?

Knew about the plug work-around and was planning on doing that, but on regular 'auto' mode, I'll occasionally get a little fogging in the corners (usually on recirc), but after pressing the front defrost button it clears right up in a few seconds. Hopefully I'm not just imagining things!

Been running with about 20 plugs for the last few years. Recently, I switched to 5 plugs and 2 diverters. The 2 diverters really do the deed very well.

@Rhinebeck01, what plugs are you currently using? Are you able to post a link to them? I appreciate your time and assistance with this.

compared to the JK and every previous vehicle I've owned, mine (and presumably everyone else's in this thread) does not work fine, the air distributions not equal from center to sides and the sides dont defrost
He means.... because he is a no frills kinda guy, it works fine for him...... kinda like people that rough it and say.... it was a VIP experience.... lol

I wonder if your plastic plugs will melt during a hot summer day. As we know vehicles get very hot with the windows rolled up in the summer.

If they do melt it will cause one heck of a mess.
Not likely... I believe the melting point for the type of plastic is around 230° F.

I think my vent cover is in its final form. We had some freezing rain recently and with one notch in the middle there were two spots of ice at about 10:30 and 1:30 near the top of the windshield, each about 6 inches in diameter. I cut two more notches near the ends of the cover and I'm getting good airflow at 10:30 and 1:30. I'm calling it good.

Did you notice any increase i noise... the fan and airflow noise in these things alreasy sound like a jet engine.
