NEED HELP BACK UP LED ( fell in housing )
 

So i ordered som DD stage 2 back up LEDs, lights are perfect everthing worked great . last night a buddy of mine notice one of the bulbs where out so i tired to se what the problem was went to take the bulb out and it fell in the houseing .:bonk:
What do you guys suggest i do . magnet , take it apart etc .
any advice will help thanks !
shout out to Diode Dynamics for great customer service

I don't know if there's enough ferrous metal in it for a magnet to work. You could get a small parts tweezers or a jeweler's four prong pick up tool or go ghetto with a flat head screw driver with gum on the tip.

its a plasma led so theres a lot of metal .... im thinking it might be easier to take the brake light out ?
i tried tweezers last night but i had no rome for my hands

lmao gum and a flat head might try it if all else fails lol

Mine did that too - ended up removing the assembly and shaking it/fishing it out :(

I think FRS_Ken has the right idea... takes 5 minutes to remove the assembly

thx guys i did as you advised and it all worked out. this new york weather didnt help thou :confused0068:

Aside from magnets and convenient specialty tools, the ole' shake it slightly till it falls out trick seems to do the trick lol.

I had this happen to me when I was putting side marker lights in my S14
