you can get it out by taking off the cover that is over the wiper area... then closing the hatch so it rolls down there...
Or.. you can use put a magnet up there and close the hatch and try to grab it. Rivnuts might not be a good solution because of how shallow they are. Either way, someone's gonna have to cut out a square, weld a nut to it and weld in the patch to fix that. probably going to have to be a Tig, also due to the space / metal constraints... Hope you're area has a good fabricator around Might be eaiser (and cheaper) just get a new hatch? Depends on your area... Hope that helps. |
