Sometimes easier way: use a rubberband to help grip, needs to be thick kind so that the head grabs properly.

 

If that doesn't work, a little less destructive is to use a dremel and cut a slit in the head and use a flat-head screw driver instead.

I couldn't try the dremel seen as my dad doesn't have one and he also doesn't have a metal drill bit  but thanks anyway:)  :mellow: but i had to improvise by wiggling the plastic enough and then i could thread the screw out by hand
