dead mouse in ‘23 forester

I’m at a loss folks. while packing up for a camping trip last Friday, my car doors were left open for some time and a mouse made his way into the car.

This mouse was not discovered until the drive back on Sunday and it escaped somewhere into the guts of my car through the passenger dash underneath the glove box.

Come tuesday, i start smelling the telltale signs of a dead animal and over the past week the smell tells me there is 100% a dead mouse in my car somewhere.

I have checked all the obvious spots, I know the dead mouse is somewhere in the A/C system because when i turn on the recirculation mode, i am immediately hit with the stench of decomposing animal.

I have removed the AC blower motor and still have not found this god damn mouse. What would you folks do at this point? Dealership quoted $1000+ to disassemble dashboard.
