Does anyone know if there are individual vents (universal or not) that could be used to replace broken ones from a DPD (Dealer Products Division I think) under dash A/C unit?

Doug,

Probably your best bet would be to find a used unit for the parts, since the originals are long NLA. AA had an updated version of the DPD, but I don't know if they can source parts for them, nor if the vents were the same size.

The way to tell between DPD or VPC is that the knobs on the DPD will center under the air vent sliders panel on the dash face & the left vent is over more towards the driver, & the Evaporator Shroud on the DPD is conical with a flat top which the spare can fit over & down into/around it, & the spare sits lower than the VPD evap - which is a flat top rectangular shape. Otherwise, look for tags & labels on them.

PS - Check the make for Clay's generous offer, cuz the DPD & VPC vents may be slightly different in size, shape &/or attachment.
