Some chace fell out of my pocket while driving. I can hear them somewhere between the door and the driver's seat - but I can't find them. There is a little gap there they probably fell into - any ideas on how to get the coins out?

Thanks

I paid the membership fee a couple of days ago via paypal and I still show up as a user - when will my status change?

could it possible that CDW's two issues above are related?


CDW-I wanted to put one of those smilin' yellow headed guys here instead but I don't have any.

Good luck on finding those coins!

CDW,

The coins may have found there way into the potential spaces within the structural rails to which the seat bolts. In my case, I had a couple of coins and a Palm stylus rolling around in there.

I had to remove the seat and undo pieces of tape that covered various holes in the rails. I then used a combination of under-the-car thumping of the floorboard (to move the offending item closer to an access hole) and one of those claw tools to grab it.

A few decent ideas can be found in this thread:

another place that i found change, is in the hinges for my seats... where the back pivots.... kinda a wierd spot, but there was change in there... all i had to do was get some foreceps and push the back of the seat all the way back... suckers popped right out... hope that helps...

Cheers,
Jonas

Last week I was en route to supermarket which has change counter/swap machine. Bag with £180 in change 20p coins and less was in passenger footwell. It broke under hard acceleration and the whole lot went under the seat!! Took me an hour to get 99% of it out. My daughters retrieved the final 1% - The effect 100% commission has on a child is amazing!!

Thank you all for the advice. I will begin my surgury soon.

I do, but my car takes off whenever I pull them out.

Seat removal is probably the only way to be sure what's under you.

You probably need to send an email to JenMunson : jmunson@rennlist.com
