Not an easy job, but doable. First and easiest, just replace the 1way valve on the intake to the HVAC system located on the passenger side of the engine. The other possibility is that the door actuators that switch between the vents and the defrost are broken. If the door actuator is busted it's a contortionists nightmare, but if it's the 1way valve, it's a 6-7 dollar fix. Youtube has some great vid's on this subject....hell, youtube should start a program for ASE certification lol!
