Anyone know if you can get these at a stealership? I always, somehow, manage to drop one while I'm fiddling around with them, this time I lost one in the engine compartment somewhere.

not available as single item as far as I know.
use the small paper clips, and bend it to form, it might work. I've done the same in a similar situation. Works like a charm.

Thx Erich. Using a telescopic mirror/magnet with lots of patience and a couple of cuts/scratches I finally found the stupid thing under the washer reservoir. Why did I even bother? I’m not sure :D, but if I'm ever in a pinch again I'll use your paper clip trick!
