Quarters under the cigarette lighter....

I keep my change in the Audi OEM change holder which some people even use as an ash tray...while it was closed not one but TWO quarters shuffled their way, somehow, out of the full tray and slipped UNDER the auxiliary power source (also known as a cigarette lighter). ANY suggestions on how to fish these out? TIA

here is what I did...

you need to get yourself a pen or something real skinny and wrap it up with regular tape. then use the sticky surface of the tape to fish those f**** coins out. Good luck on that....
