defrost...

alright so i finally got my heater working not smelly not blowing smoke its all good...except for the dumb fact that the weather stripping on my doors and door windows sucks (getting new weatherstripping for it), well when i turn my heater on and every window fogs up quite a bit (the cold and hot dont mix too well) so I turn on my defrost and i feel up by the window becasue it isnt working too well and there is not much power comming out of those like out of my normal air ducts, I have a diagram that showed me where the blue air hose goes and the red and orange, so they are correct...here is the diagram:

is this a just because it is always not a lot of power? or do I need to check something? it is comming nicely out of my vents

You see on your picture where the plenum and the duct that goes to the defrost are seperated? Mine is just like that and wont come together. I've been meaning to put tape around it. Check yours ,see if your defrost air is blowing under the dash.

do you mean that bigger bar around the defrost side? i just now noticed when i put my defrost on that it was way big over .... so am I missing that bar? ah i'll check to see if it is blowing air out ... i wonder if maybe it fell off some where? or why would it just be missing? im the first person to ever take it out i know that for a 100% fact lol
