Perhaps if you drop the front skid-plate, it'll find it's way onto the ground... :thumbup:

 

[Sam Mac]

Maybe you can fish it out with a magnet?

 

[Trekster]

Is the screw magnetic? If so, any chance a small magnet on a string could reach it? :dontknow: (guess the post above me came in while I was writing mine...)

Just remove the front grill and grab it. Just four screws and it comes right off.

Magnet

Most hardware is an alloy. The battery bolt should stick to a magnet. Try the other one. If it sticks, go fishing! You might be able to remove the pushpins, remove the frunk liner, spot it.

Unless it's Stainless any small magnet will pick it up. Or---four screws removes the front grill. Reach in and grab it.

Okay so I got it done... I took off the grill only to find out it was under another piece that was behind the grill! I was able to get it up enough to put the telescope magnet in to grab it.. it was so weak though and i had to work at it for awhile but got it. I then decided to but the tender to the battery and through a whole i drilled in the frunk like i was shown here... I was told 1/2 inch hole but was to small so I played with it in order to get the end of the tender through.. I got it all done... whew... took a couple of hours but she's sleeping now and I'm on my way to join her lol..:doorag::spyder:

At myself but a little at the design!! I was hooking up the battery tender to the F# and dropped on of the screws which went down into the bottom under the frunk!!! Why is there a whole there?!! Anyway yes it's my clumsiness but now i need to get that :banghead: screw out... help with ideas please?:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

I did the identical thing--could not find the screw--200 miles later I was installing the Baha Ron Sway torsion bar. I removed the lower panel & the screw rolled out to the ground. I'm thinking it falls into a locaton that doesn't bounce out on the road. Just buy a replacement screw from your local hardware store or remove the bottom panel==In my case the loose & replacement screw didn't hurt anything.

PS: When they recommend buying a replacement screw what they really mean is to buy 1/2 dozen along with same quantity of pop-up fastener plugs
