Getting tools out under over condenser smuggler box
 

While removing my steering rack today, I dropped a few allen sockets under the condenser. What is the easiest way of getting to them?
After stripping the allen pan head I removed the fan housing and accidentally clipped the guide tube, how difficult are they to replace?
And what are you replacing the pan head screws with?


Thanks

A flexible probe with a magnet at the end will help get what is under the evaporator, however clearance may not be your friend. I am sure you will come up with a few new cuss words...;)
I have learned my lesson early on and try to remember to stuff rags wherever there is an opening and things that don't belong will always find their way in.:D

In order to have more access to the bottom of the smuggler's box, beneath the evaporator housing, you can remove the passenger's side floorboard and then remove the evaporator intake duct - there will be about 1" of clearance all the way around the evaporator opening at that point.

Tools.
 

^^^^^
Here's the way I did it.

+2 :-)

So I got the stuff from under the condenser.
The next battle is extracting the Allen m8x15 that holds the steering rack in place. It has already broken one screw extractor.
