Brake fuze fell in between the trim. Help!

Hi guys so I was doing some tomfoolery in the snow and I turned off my awd by taking out the brake light fuze thing and when I was done with my fun in the snow I went to go put it back in it fell in between the trim things and I cant seem to find it. I didnt have the time to really tear off the trim to look for it but i wanna know if i should be worried with it potentially causing electrical problems like it shorting something out or am I fine to wait until tomorrow morning?

In fell inbetween this trim.

ps I have a replacement fuze in it right now and it's working fine but I want to put the original back in just to be safe.

It's called a 'fuse'.

Use one of these to try to retrieve it.


Amazon Amazon

Available at most hardware stores, walmart(?), menards, etc.

If it fell inside the fuse box (between trim and fuse box), good luck. Last time I dropped something in there, had to pull the panel off to get it.

Easy solution is to remove the lower plastic scuff trim, then remove the fuse box panel trim, and finally pick up the fuse which most likely might be underneath the carpet. Will take a minute to do.
