Recently, my cellular phone was lying on the back car floor behind the drivers seat. It accidentally fell into the open plastic air/vent duct that opens up into the floor behind the drivers seat. How can I take it out as it moved toward the inner part of the duct whilst driving.

Regards

you will have to remove the duct face to gain acess to the duct. use a coat hanger with end hooked to retrieve it.

Have a look at the attached image... without removing the seat , carpet & duct, you will have to use some kind of
long tool that has adhesive at the end so that it sticks to the phone.

It is hard to tell from the image if there is a "step down" in the duct (where #2 attaches to the front piece), if yes, then
that will make it difficult to fish the phone out.

If you need more info (green text in image), let me know.

Good luck.

Found another picture... does the dash layout look correct?

It looks like a straight connection. If this does not match your vehicle, can you post a
picture of what you see under the seat?
