That'd be a lesson in torque!
I haven't taken apart a 2801 to look at access on the inside, but I had done
that before on a 3620... If you have a REALLY good set of needle nose
pliers, you can reach the end of the screw on the inside and twist it just
enough to where it'll stick out and you can resume on the outside perhaps.
I think you're beyond warranty at this point though, but you can try to
explain that one to TAC. :)

Subject: Screwing a VWIC-2MFT-T1 too hard
I just got a brand new Cisco 2801 router and a VWIC-2MFT-T1. I tried to
screw the VWIC into the router, but I screwed it too hard. The screw head
came off from the shaft (but I swear, I wasn't screwing that hard). Now the
shaft is stuck inside the hole and I can't get it out. I tried to use some
oil lube on it, but I could not get it to loosen up. A co-worker suggested
that I try to drill it, but I am worried that the metal pieces will get
inside the router. Any other suggestions? Would this be covered under
warranty?
