LED Sidelight fell into headlamp unit

[AS_BO]

Replacing a bulb because it was flickering and it got caught in the hole and fell into the unit. Is that ever coming out?!?! Any ideas?

Ive got one loose in the bottom of my drivers side lamp. Been there for over two years

Well it's staying there then!

Cant you just take the headlight unit off - detach all the bulbs from the gaps and shake the lost bulb out?

Did this to get what looked like a mosquito out of my clio light

Bumper off first, then its easy enough.

Worth bothering.... Nah

oooo! ouch - didn't know the bumper had to come off on twingos - Was easy on my old clio mk2, the unit just plopped off.

Certainly not worth bothering on a twingo! magnetic stick thing may do it?

Winning! I'll get one ordered because it's going to annoy the hell outta me knowing it's there!!

should do the job just right for you, i believe you can get tiny little ones for intricate jobs like that. perhaps one with a magnetic set of tripod arms would be handy so that it can at least magnetise the small contact points on the LED's for a bit of a better grip and i'm sure you don't need me telling you the birds and the bees on how to slide it in there gently ....... hahah!
