Default Remote key shell question

The small screw holding the outer shells together is stripped. I tried putting a dab of super glue on a small jeweler screw driver and letting it set before turning, but that did not work. Also went to a jeweler who could not get it out. Any ideas on how to get this stripped screw out the cover? Thanks

I used a small drill bit and drilled out the head of the screw. once the cover got over the head of the bolt, I used a needle nose plyers to screw out the rest of the screw.
