How to get items out of small spaces (that makes you want to cry)

I was upgrading my number plate lights and it required me to take the trunk release lock and the front face plate where the Toyota badge is on.

What I wasn't expecting was to drop the darn bolt down the back of the trunk :mad0260:

I first tried a hover to suck the bolts out, but space was just too narrow, I then thought of fishing it out with a hook or something, but I couldn't see what I was doing.

I then looked on eBay and found an endoscope for only $12 (wow), I buy that and give it a try.

When I got the scope I spent a good 4 hours fishing two bolts out and finally got them out. They were making an annoying rattling sound as I closed the boot. I even tried to take the boot off and try and shake them out, but there were wires attached going into the car so I abandoned that.

The endoscope kit comes with a hook

Whoever says they never wanted to see into their own butthole is lying or has already done so and is too disgusted/embarrassed to admit they've seen the "other side". :lol:
It does look like a good thing to have around though. You know to see deep into dark places....apparently it's water proof too!

Not bad for $12. But for $6 magnet on a stick works too, some times...

Just FYI I have seen the inside of my own asshole, you know...during a medical "exam"
Wasn't impressed.

Well, im glad we all talked about something other than what I was doing. Getting some bolts out of a narrow space, but you never what you can use it for.

Yeah but nothing a little bit of soap and water can't fix. I'm I right?
