Hello All Dodge Lovers!

I have a '95 Ram which I would trade for the world, but today I ran into a little snag.
My orignal Mopar key fell out of the little ashtry/drawer and behind the dash. I tried to remove the dash componet that runs from the right side of the steering wheel to the glovebox but even after I removed the screws, it was impossible. Any suggestions for how I can get my key back? Or am I just going to have to suck it up and get on with my life?

H,
Welcome! Don't know how much help it would be but, removing the radio may help get you back there. Don't know if that will be far enough over for you though. I have a '01 and the dash setup is a little different from '95. The other alternative is drop the steering wheel, loosen the end bolts to the panel on each side by the cowl, take out the screws at the windshield, and rotate the panel down. That may buy you enough room to reach in there and fish around. Its alot of work though for a key.
Good luck.

hmm 95 still has the ashtray up top in the dash...if you remove the panel below the steering wheel you may be able to reach around behind under where the key would have fell, or you can pop the glove box out and reach in from that side, why was your key in the ashtray and not the ignition thow lol
