you have to remove everything under the rear half of the car. everything. entire suspension and crossmember and differential and driveshaft and exhaust, etc.

Good to know, hope they know the trick of getting it from the rear parcel shelf. I have something rolling around in my gas tank, got to fish it out and fix it!
Just read the manual, they do tell you about the access hole at the top. I think they will try to grab whatever it is from the top first and then see what broke inside.
