Default Got something stuck in the overhead panel!

I seem to have gotten something stuck in the sunglasses drawer in the overhead panel. I can't open it, anyone got any ideas?

Just take the whole assembly off the roof and take it apart that way. Just pull down near the sunroof dial. Dont be scared as it requires some force.

Could also try a flathead wrapped in something soft.

+1 on the suggestion of using a flathead wrapped in something soft

That should do the trick. Don't be afraid to use some power to "nudge" it out.

Btw, whats stuck? sunglasses?
