Shelf under defroster in dash?

So, funny/awkward story here...I work in a secure building and left my badge/keycard on my dashboard as I was getting out of the car, and when I went to grab it, I accidentally knocked it into a little recess at the front of the dashboard beteeen the defroster vents and the windshield, and the little thing seems wedged in there. I can’t get it out with needle nose pliers or tweezers. Does anyone have advice on how to get back there, or is disassembling the dash the only option?

Coat hanger? Maybe try a Shop Vac with crevice tool.
