A few months?!?!? Take a break and eat man, you'll be wasting away. No strength left you see, that's your problem.

Incidentally, when I eventually got mine out I broke 2 of the retaining clips. It still seems to sit in there perfectly and now it's much easier to remove! Not that I'm recommending that approach mind and I do have a new vent ready to fit for the next owner! Not that I'm selling her anytime soon!
