Hi, The two screws that fix the plastic trim surrounding the handbrake lever on my car are rusty. I've been able to remove one of them quite easily. The other one has a burred head and won't come out. Does anyone have any tips on removing it? The method of hitting the screwdriver with a hammer would probably break the plastic trim. I think the main problem is just getting the screwdriver to grip on the screw head. Maybe there's a cheapish tool that can do this?
