So I took off the top and used a needle nose and got the shaft out of the
hole. I also took a screw from the slot cover to put in the empty hole for
the VWIC. Thank you so much for all the replies. I will be more careful when
screwing in the future. I guess my ex was right when he said I should not
use power tools!
