Dropped a spanner - HELP!!!

[RobW]

Just placed it on top of the engine cover but it slid, rolled and went onto the tray under the engine, not wanting to leave it there I had a look but with the cr being quite low at the front it was not easy.

How easy does this tray come off or is there another way to retrieve the spanner?!

i would try jacking the car up you should be able to get your hand in through one of the gaps in th side

strong magnet and pull it to a edge of the lower trim

Trays easy to come off, just about 20 screws.....

Welding rod or coat hanger bent to shape?

I dropped an 8mm socket between the banks. There is no hope in hell I can get it out. It's stuck solid and I don't have a magnet
