Hmmm I am thinking that they may fit. But g'all damn, its a PT Looser! 
But if they fit. . . Hmmmm. Wonder if anyone who works at a dealership can give us some inside info. Or is anyone brave enough to drive their JK in to test drive a PT and do a vent swap??

Looks like the 08 vents are now on eBay. Pretty cheap too!

WOW...what a difference it makes!
Great tip...thanks...it took me all of 3 minutes to remove the rings and vents......1 minute to spray paint them .....(after it took 30 min to dry).....it then took me 3 minutes to put it all back together again. I also painted the ends to the passenger grab handle (they just slide off and on).....looks fantastic!
Best 37 minutes spent ..... next to you know what!

I tried this - I originally painted my vent rings in Jeep Green, but wasn't too pleased with the contrast between the dark gray and the green... if I had a khaki interior, I would've left it alone like that, but there just wasn't enough contract for my taste. So, I repainted them using a can of "hammered silver" paint, and then hit it up with a couple layers of "triple gloss." It looks really cool like this. I also painted the two side pieces of the passenger dash grab handle, and that looks really sharp...
