I would get a decent sized magent and Go Fish!!

Or just go to the hardware store and buy new ones. They aren't really anything special. You've had them out, so you pretty much know the size, just look for something similar.

 

I've got a big magnet about 1 ft long (Thats the issue) but i'm worry about messing anything up while i put it down there.

 

Think my shop i work at has similar replacments. Want me to try and send some? Free of charge

 

Pull out your passenger seat and remove the center console. This should allow you to get down into the bottom of the dash IIRC. It only takes about 20 minutes to do, as well.

 

I'd like to try that.. but i'm a bit worried about taking off the center console :/

 

It's really quite easy; like Vicious said, six screws, and you pry off the shift facia/boot with a tape-covered screwdriver. You don't actually have to remove the passenger seat, but it's easy and gives you a lot of work room.

You could just go buy screws like everyone else is saying, but personally I'd fetch the ones that fell in, lest they find somewhere annoying to bounce around and rattle.

BTW: If a girl can do a whole dash pull, you can do this

 

pry the surround off the shifter. then two bolts there, and 6 along the sides of the center console. it pulls right up.

easy to find from there

 

^^^. Or if you have one of those extending skinny magnets that almost look like they come out of a pen.. That will work. Happened to me before, and I stuck it down there without messing anything up.

 

this happened to me as well i tried for an hour. finally i said to hell with it and let em stay lol it just irks me that there in there laughing at me :3_steam:

 

Hardware store by far simplest solution.
I often put a towel or rags down over areas so if I do drop something it lands in there and easy to find/retrieve. Tip for next time...

 

Don't waste your time trying to get them, go to the hardware store, measure the diameter of the hole on the stereo and take a package of screws that are a little bit smaller than the hole (the closest one).

These bolts have all a comon thread depending on their size (you are not in a fashion hardware section where you can have 3 different threads for one screw size), so it should cost you 2$-3$ and that's it!
