Rant: Repro Dash Vents

Hey guys, is it just me, or do the new reproduction dash vents suck? Pins don't line up. Had to open up the holes for the pins in the dash, then had to grind part of the vent tube down so it would sit somewhat square in the depression in the dash. I finally got them to where they are somewhat presentable, started putting the nuts on and snapped one of the pins off! And no, I wasn't cranking on it either. Just save your money and find decent originals. They sure make them sound nice though, better material than the originals, blah, blah... I hear a lot of people saying nothing is plug and play with our old cars. You've gotta modify, etc. Well, for $65 these things should install themselves. Well, I don't feel any better. Grrrrrr!!!!!:
