New Corolla should have rear passenger airvents. Doesn't.

[Zorric]

Basically, my new Corolla Hatchback (Design spec) should have rear passenger airvents, according to the brochure. Like my 2006 Vectra did, in fact.

The Excel model that I test drove and sat in in the showroom did have rear passenger airvents, and as the brochure clearly states all models do, that was that, I thought.

But, a few days after picking up the car, my boy asked where the air vents were as he was sitting in the back. We couldn't see anything, so I took it back to the dealer where the salesman said only the Excel model had them. I pointed out the interior equipment list which shows they were on all models, and he was surprised. He took a picture of the lack of airvents and the said he would get onto Toyota about it and get back to me. This was over a week ago.

He also pulled the centre console apart on another car that was in the showroom, also without airvents, to see if the ducting and so on was behind the blanking panel, but unfortunately that did not seem to be the case.

It may not sound very important, but it really was a major consideration as either my boy, who is 13, or my wife, are sitting in the back and would not have been happy for me to order a car without rear airvents. It makes a big difference to their comfort on long journeys.

So, any ideas as to what I should do, if anything? I'd very much like to have the airvents as the spec shays they should be, but that doesn't look easy.
I actively didn't want the top Excel model as it had the larger wheels, and I wanted the better ride on the smaller wheels give.
