Retrieving item that slipped behind the back bed tray

Lauinger

Any idea how best to retrieve a magazine that fell behind the tray that’s behind the bed on a 2020 320S?

Remove that back storage unit:
1. Remove the 7 screws holding it in place.
2.  Lay on your back, reach above your head & grab the two cross brace pieces of wood inside, then lift it out.  If you're lucky, it will be sitting next to the heating convectors.  Otherwise, it's under the thin plywood piece on which the convectors are mounted.  I haven't had to go beyond that point so far.  I did drop a small object below there once, but it was metal & I got it with a magnetic grabber on an antenna-like extension.

Here's some of my photos taken after removing the rear storage bin/shelf, showing the areas underneath..

Here’s my fix to keep that from happening. So far, so good

pictures pictures no very good. What I used is a Sheetrock corner that’s like a piece of angle iron. It’s plastic, weighs nothing, I cut to length and it fits perfect in the “slot”. The plastic piece has holes all down both angles so the heater still works great. A dab of silicone might be needed if the slot is a little big. $1.98 at Lowe’s
