You guys ROCK! I made my forearm as small as I could and searched inside the door. I'll be DAMNED if that that little sumbitch wasn't loose and stuck against the inside wall! Now all I need to do is to find a clip to hold it in place (better than the first one) and I should be good to go. Thanks to you all for the assist.
