Air duct falling down, Has this happened to anyone else? Options

[runriot95]

Yesterday while driving, I had a very harrowing experience when the air duct that connects the vents from the center console to the driver's side vents fell down.

This has happened a few times before but I was usually driving on a residential street and was able to stop and remove it. This time I was traveling on the highway when it happened and at first I though "no biggie" but then it started to get wedged down by the pedals.

Anyway, has anyone else had this recurring problem like I have? I think I fixed it pretty good but it's a pretty lousy design that doesn't seem to fit very well.

Take the 2 panels off that are in front of the duct, there is 2 screws near the collom, and 1 screw beheind the kickpanel, and the other is in the bottom right, then there are 2 screws holding in the hood release. there is another panel beheind this one which is held on by 4 10mm bolts, take them out and it should fall off again, reinsert your air duct and you'll notice of the left side there is a little hole for a push pin, crappy design really, find a big screw, screw it into that hole, and fix'ed/

I DID notice that little hole on one of the ends of the duct. I didn't know what it was for but thanks for the tip!
