After I installed my HFC and CBE, I went out for a test drive and heard all this rattling going on and then through my rear view mirror I saw these two metal pieces flying out. Of course I stopped to make sure none of the seals broke lose; which they hadn't. Luckily my friend was behind me so he stopped to grab whatever flew out and it turned out to be a 14mm deep well socket and a 3/8" extension haha.
