Dropped something underneath my seat

I dropped my flash drive underneath my drivers seat and it happened to fall in the only place where you couldn't get it out. It is lodged inside the seat railings toward the back. I've tried fishing it out and no luck. Any suggestions?

only thing i can think of is a magnetic pointer, but im afraid that may damage the data on the drive. or if you have kids, wife or GF get one of them to reach for it

The back plastic covers on the rails can be removed.

I keep dropping things there all the time. Change,cell phone, key fob. I usually raise the seat and moving forward or backward annd going from uinderneath. Also you can get a plyer and grab it with that.

Yeah talk about a hassle, one time I removed my shifter **** and the little clip fell got stuck in between the seat and the center console, it was a PITA getting it out.

Metal hanger is the way to go. Lol I keep one in my car at all times just for that. I always drop phone or keys in-between the seat and center console.
