Which seat and which vent?

You could turn the car upside down and shake it?

Try calling it and asking it if it wouldn't mind just getting back here NOW!

Hoover ?

Accelerate fast?

Reverse fast and hit the anchors (take child out first) or perhaps not

Coathanger?

That is the best I can do post red wine I am afraid

This is a diagram of the vents..

This is a LHD installation but the RHD will be similar. The vent under the seat does not look that deep so maybe a coat hanger could help if you push the seat all the way to the front. Jacking up the front of the car might be useful. Last resort might be to remove the seat. Malaysia Boleh!

Looking at Bobbys diagram

I would park the car on as steep a incline as you can find and see if you can bounce it out with a little acceleration and hard braking, maybe with the help of a coat hanger hook.
