sorry its not an up close shot.. but you can see it will be in front of the vents, but it does not hit into them, at least mine doesnt, i can still angle it back quite a bit before itll hit. In the summer i just close the center vents with a/c on, and in the winter i use the floor and defroster vents for heat, and keep those center vents shut as well. if i want them to blow air, i just close the screen
