Yes you could fit them but you loose a lot of leg room which is why I took them off mine. My AC was fooked anyhow and would have cost more than the motor to fix so it was a no brainer. Sold all the bits and bobs on eBay to a fella in Tanzania.

I would have thought if you put one of them in to direct heat, all that woulf happen is you warm up the vents I'm going to try and make a vent cover similar to the origional one but instead having it facing upwards, I'd rather have cold feet than cold hands, that's why I wear shoes

Refit the existing vents upside down, more warm (ish) air directed upwards....

im not wanting it to face my feet was gonna try connect the ones that are aimed at your feet an connect them to the ac vents so you can point them upwards if i can get some ac vents

You have to remove the existing down facing vents to fit the AC ones. The AC unit has its own fan to give better air flow. Just fitting the vents wont be very effective other than emptying your wallet. As said just reversing the existing vents so they face up rather than down will blow warm air on to your knees rather than your feet.
