Is there a trick to adding these aftermarket knobs to the cowl and side vents? They’re so loose.

If you're not worried about taking them off again, use some epoxy inside the pocket. Not enough so it oozes all over the place when you put them on, but enough to make contact with the lever. Be sure the lever and the pocket in the knob are clean and oil-free.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

I use Black RTV. It holds just fine and it can be taken off if you ever need to.
