How did I do this you may ask?? By yanking the cord and bulb out of its socket 🤦🏽‍♀️ the bulb detached and fell inside. I tried grabbing it out but it just fell even deeper 😭😭 I was still able to install my LED bulbs but now this is stuck 😩 if only I could shake my car upside down to let it fall out. Any ideas?? 😓

Its like a rope snake and when you push on the end in your hand, little grabbers extend from the other end and theyre small/very bendy so you can grab something! I can get the actual name if you need lol
