Seeburg 222 - Finding lost screws.

I have a Seeburg 222 which is missing a dozen or so screws, mainly from behind the selector unit. I have a suspicion that they have fallen down the holes on the inside edges of the jukebox. Unfortunately, these holes don't go through to the inside of the jukebox, but appear to lead to a cavity between the cabinet and the chrome panels which line the inside of the speaker/grill area. So, the question is, does anyone know the quickest and easiest way to remove those chrome panels? The manual, or a least the one I have, doesn't show them clearly and I don't really want to remove more parts than necessary.

Keith,
I took them off and replaced them, many years ago, once--but do not recall anything about it--BUT, I have a few "suggestions", that you should feel free to take or leave--
1. Get 4 strong guys ( lock the cabinet doors FIRST), have them lift, turn it up-sided down and shake--
2. Purchase a long skinny magnet.
3. Go to your local hardware store and purchase new screws --

Thanks Ron,
I had considered 2 & 3, but thought that if they could be removed without too much dismantling it would be a good time to clean out the sh1t.

Hi Keith,
Well, then I guess number one is your best option-all of that "stuff" will come out, if they shake it right !

So, I guess what you are saying is that those panels weren't made to come-off "easily"?
