The vent won’t rotate after installation, so you should orient it the way you want it during the install. The vent flaps can be moved somewhat. It was a major concern for me with this product, but it hasn’t bothered me like I thought it would. As for it ruining the vent, I do not know. I’ve only had this mount for about 6000 miles.
