Some details come from retailer listings rather than a Malibu Wide Plank spec sheet.
Details that matter on a wood floor
Malibu Wide Plank comes in both click and tongue-and-groove versions. The two install differently (floated versus fastened), so let us know which one you have when you ask for a quote. It changes nothing about the vent sizes, but it helps us understand the opening.
Malibu Wide Plank uses wide boards (6-1/2 inches). On a floor like that a 4-inch vent often sits inside a single board instead of straddling a seam, so note the board direction when you send your sizes.
Board thickness is the detail people forget. Malibu Wide Plank is 3/8 or 1/2 inch, and a vent face that is meant to sit flush needs to match that height. A leftover board is the easiest way to measure it.
Malibu Wide Plank belongs to The Home Depot, so you won't find it at an independent dealer. Your receipt or the carton label has the color name and item number we need.

Can you match a Malibu Wide Plank floor that went in years ago?
Usually, yes. A leftover board from the original install helps most, because finishes change with age and sunlight.
Does it matter whether my Malibu Wide Plank floor is click or tongue-and-groove?
Not for the vent sizes. It does help us picture the opening, so mention it in your quote request.
How thick is Malibu Wide Plank flooring?
3/8 or 1/2 inch, per retailer listings. Measure a spare board to be sure, since lines differ.
