    I'm not professional mechanic, but I won't put anything like that near engine bay.
    I've dropped socket, bolt, nut etc into the engine bay before, and I got lucky by rocking the car back and forth I managed to get them out. It'd drive me nuts if I couldn't get them out.
    Now I use masking tape to wrap the bolts and nuts to the socket if I feel there's a chance of them falling into some cracks.

    Just spoke with the shop Manager on the phone. He walked me to the truck yesterday to get a couple of things. I asked him if he could please do me a favor. He said sure. Told him yesterday I noticed they didn't have any finder covers on the truck. But I mentioned that they may have taken them off. I said when I brought the truck in there were no scratches on the truck. Can you please make sure I get it back the same way? He said not a problem. I'll take care of it. I politely thanked him and said goodbye.

    Well played. Now he knows that you're watching and he'll tell the tech to pay attention. All without you being anything but polite.

    Will do. Thanks. Should I call Toyota before the Truck leaves the shop? Or wait till I get it back?
