Help!!!!!

I was just about to start installing my Westin Nerf bars when I put the first bolt bar in the truck frame and *plop*... I dropped it. Not sure if anybody has a clue what im talking about but its the part on the bottom edge of the passenger side... There's normally tape covering these holes but the installation requires you to remove it to put the bolt in there. Needless to say I fail. Anywho, I need assistance! I've shaved off quite a bit of knuckle skin trying to reach in there and grab it out with no luck, and now its completely of finger reach :/ Anybody know a way to possibly get this thing out? It's like trying to get a "Z" out of a tiny rectangle...

magnet on a string or a actual tool.

like this one. The end has a light so you can see right where the tip is going. works great. used one very close to this one a lot during my dual CP3 install.

Not sure if you meant to post a link?... The only thing is though, even with a light I still wont physically be able to see in there because its in such a weird spot. I really appreciate the help and congrats on winning TOTM
