Seat belt won’t latch due to foreign debris

[Jake53]

The rear center seat belt won’t latch because a chewing gum wrapper fell into the buckle. Any suggestions on how to get it all out.

Vacuum cleaner? Seems like a good shop vac could suck it out. Or, fish it out with a thin, stiff wire.

Was able to fish most of the wrapper out and it latches now. Just concern about the remaining bit fouling the spring. I found a bunch of silicone covers for buckle so must be common issue
