    Default Dropped bulb in boot light compartment hole

    Hi all,

    Silly me tried to change to boot light at night and I accidentally dropped my replacement bulb down the hole that's just directly under where the bulb sits. I've already tried pulling off the removable section underneath but unfortunately it was nowhere to be found and must have fallen further down. Is there any chance I can retrieve the bulb? And what would I need to remove to access that area?

    Many thanks all

    Maybe pick yourself up a flexible magnetic pickup tool and try to get it out with that

    Example only:

    Can pick them up from most automotive stores for < $10

    Nvm guys, stuck my fingers under the side wall of the boot and low and behold, found it and under the tight fit, managed to pull it out - and yes it is now installed!
