Default Dash Question

what did you guys use to get to the screw on the top of the dash, closest to the driver side door? because of the friggen windshield, i can not get to the screw...and my white faced gauges are peeling up, so my needles are stuck and it's really annoying...so, what did u guys use to get that screw?

When I did mine I used a flexible screwdriver thing, works pretty good

(not this exact one but pretty similar)

I used a very small wratchet wrench with socket and small
screwdriver bit in the socket. Worked like a charm.
