Small ten inch sub vibrated a couple nuts off, help me find a way to get them back on

There are two bolts that hold the spoiler that have fallen off on the right side causing the spoiler to excessively vibrate. The hole to these bolts is super small and awkward and none of my tools work. I took it to the brilliant guys at autozone to see if they had a special tool, but no luck.



If you have any suggestions please post your idea to get the nuts back on and the tool needed. Thanks

pics coming soon but there the bolts holding the trunk lid and spoiler together on the right side

Would you mind taking a picture of the holes they have to pass through? I'm sure a lot of us don't feel like taking the trunk liner off to remember what the holes for the spoiler look like.

Yeah that might work, i tried something similar but it wasn't as thin as that tool. Thanks.

If it just has to be thin then a standard 10mm 1/4" drive socket should do the trick.
