Hello, i did a quick search...
I can see myself spending an hour or more doing this.
Is there a tool or trick you guys use?

If you have access to an air compressor, that would be the best. If not, a slim, long handle brush, or a screwdriver and a vacuum. It will take a little while.

strong enough vacuum will get rid of anything under there that isn`t wedged. Wedged stuff: flathead screwdriver to unwedge, then vacuum.
Long handled brush OR shop vac. Try the shop vac on blow. That`s how i dry my engine after a cleaning.

Anything long and thin from either side will help you pull it loose enough to either pick up or using a long, thin, crevice tool, vacuum it out..
I see these all the time and have always been able to remove all that stuff that fell there from in between the seat and the console..
Good Luck !

Metro Vac sells an extended version of the crevic tool that everyone owns.

Agreed, compressed air would be best. Steam would be another option especially if there were sticky areas. Shop vac and screwdriver would work too. Lots of good suggestions here
EXPDetailing - Thanks for the tip - I have never seen a crevice tool that thin !
It looks like it should work fine; Im not sure about that hole on the side of it taking away suction from the bottom of the tool..
Perhaps it has a flap that closes it up when not needed ?
Can see how beneficial it would be though, getting flat on the floor/carpet to get stuff you cant get to with the nozzle end...

Stokdgs- Yeah, when you want more suction out of one of those pick-ups I`d just tape off the other one.
Many small-orifice nozzles/adapters have those "bleed holes" to protect the vacuum`s motor from working too hard (by drawing through the little opening). You can block them to increase the suction if you don`t mind stressing the motor (never caused any problems for me, but of course YMMV).
I hit them with steam then if that doesnt work
Add flathead screwdriver and push it out then more steam
Worked so far for me
I tru to get out the stuff that might melt and cause more problems first though

Be careful with the steaming, lest it do what happened to my MPV, and more recently, the Tahoe. (Despite my having plenty of experience and having taken considerable care to be gentle- exact same process didn`t do damage before but then it did.)
Tracks can be the bane of your existence. Q-Tips the size of a foot long screwdriver would be ideal. I have a car wash (I know where one is) where I know the suction of the vacuums and the attachment will get everything out.
