If its ex plod then you will find the ducting to the rear vents either cut or totaly removed!

They often fitted items in the centre console and hence the 'mod'

Always had this problem with all the pfl's i've had.
Mine does warm a little after a few minutes but tbh, I put it down to the distance / cooling affect on the warm air as it travels the length of the ducting.

I should have said the air flow is very strong suggesting the vents are connected to something also the running gear is explod not the car but it was auto would the ducting be different now it's manual ?

Ducting runs above the transmission tunnel, within the centre console unit, to the rear vents.  Strong airflow suggests that the ducting is all in place and complete, so your problem lies elsewhere.  :y
