Title: School boy error
Post by: duckman on 01 May 2012, 11:25

Made a little mistake don't ask how haha, but one of my alan keys has fallen down the front of my dash by the a piller trim, where the vents are for the heated screen, didn't sound like it fell far, is there a quick way to get it or is it dash out? School boy error  :sad:

Depends how far its actually fallen! See if you can get a magnet down there to fetch it out?

One of those flexible grabber things and a telescopic magnet are absolute must purchases.

Saved me tons of rage and cursing.
