loose change!

Not sure if anyone can help but here goes..
Recently picked up my second E91 325d lci, happy with the car so far apart from a load of coins stuck underneath the front ashtray! Has anyone had this problem before and is there a way of getting the coins out? Going into and coming out of fast bends is like emptying a fruit machine
Thanks

It's easy enough to remove with plenty of guides/YouTube vids of how to do.

Pretty straight forward though a bit tricky connecting the electrics back onto the gear shifter cover.
Nice for £4.50 retrieved paying for my trim tools.
Thanks for your help guys!
