How do you extract paper that's slipped down the space between the dashboard and the window of a 1998 Vauxhaul Vectra?

Answer 1

Unless it's an important paper,it will do no harm to leave it there.Several things to try if you have to get it. Try a hoover with the crevice pipe on the end. Slim bladed knife with a bit of grease on it. Length of thin wire with a hook bent into the end. If none of this works,what about removing the glovebox assembly,have a look with a torch and maybe get the paper from below? There are various other posts describing removing the whole dashboard if you get no joy by the other methods.Good luck.

Answer 2

One way to remove the paper is by using a long and narrow tool, such as a pair of tweezers or a ruler with some sticky tape wrapped around one end. Gently maneuver the tool to grab the paper and carefully pull it out. Be patient to avoid damaging the dashboard or scratching the window.
