Good spot for one of these: https://www.amazon.com/GearWrench-85035-35-MicroDriver-Set/dp/B0062FSAVI
Whereas I prefer an impact driver, this driver might also work. Has a nice selection of bits. Select the proper size Phillips, place it in the slots, apply loosening pressure and whack it with a hammer. This is my "go to" tool for a lot of jobs on the boat. I have 3 sets; boat, truck, house. -- Dennis C.
