   One of my air vent slats has fell down behind the Open/Close thing behind, i don't even know where to start about getting it out, will i have to go behind the dash?

   Flat head screwdriver unclip the vent surround from the dash,then if your lucky you may be able to fish it out of the air ducting.If not you`ll have to remove that part of the air ducting.

   If the above fails it's a dash out job, easy enough tbh as there only held in by about 8 scre/nuts

   Go could also try a hoover with just the small pipe part & see if you can suck the slat out(worth a try)
