Default Card lost behind sliding cigarette compartment door

Hi, I accidentally slipped a card along the cigarette compartment sliding door and its now stuck behind the cigarette light compartment. Is it possible to remove the sliding cigarette compartment door to have a look behind it? It's a lexus is250

Best bet is to remove the center console. Should take you about 30 mins the first time around, and prob 5 mins afterwards.

Yep. Taking the center console apart should let you get to it. Ran into that problem before.
