Replacing the toolkit button of your car is a fairly simple operation because it is plastic, even though it functions as if it were metal. If it has become mechanically tilted, just use the tip of a drill to pull it out. You might also be able to remove the screw with a screwdriver.

Proceeding this way should avoid making a small hole and finding a long, sharp screw that is wider than the hole, applying a bit of glue to the screw before reassembling, and letting it rest for at least a couple of hours.
