Default Socket lost in bumper area

Hi all!

I have a 2005 v70 and have been trying to get the rear bumper off. I'm not sure if this will make any sense. I have been using a socket set with an extending piece to get at the bolts. I have taken the pieces of foam away and noticed that there is a large space in where the bolts are. As I Loosened the bolt both the socket and the long nut came away and fell inthere. Now I cant get them out and I cant seem to get in there. Anyway of getting into that area where the bolts go in to get them out?

Thanks

I always use my telescoping magnet and slide it around in there to get the nuts and dropped sockets out.

I do it all the time.
