Rear ventilation specs

I'm looking for diagram of the rear vent so that I can 3D print an adaptor so I can channel warm and cold air to the boot area for my dog.
I don't know if anything like this is available as I have not found anything yet.

Many thanks

The rear seating area footwell duct outlet is easily removable. Have you removed it for inspection?

Thanks for the response, no I haven't tried it yet. Do I need any special tools?

No. Spend some time with the car. Your questions will be answered.

If you don't have the climate controls for the rear seat passengers, I'd have thought that directing the center dash vents to the rear and up a little would do the job pretty well. I don't know what all you've tried but that would be one thing. Another is to select only the defrost outlets - that air goes over the top of the interior to the rear. If you do have the rear seat climate controls, those outlets can easily be adjusted to blow into the rear cargo area.
