Trying to get my door strike mounted on my door frame but the little plate that it bolts in to fell in to the body panel. UGH. I even got it out once with a magnet but it fell back down and I can't seem to get it back. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Take the quarter panel plastic loose and reach inside. There is plenty of room with it out of the way.
