I stuck a screwdriver between the screw and the lambda tower "wall" (sideways) and twisted the screws in that way, worked like a charm.

^^^ lambda tower wall
^^screw driver using the tower wall as levage and pushing the screw and and twisting it
^screw head
That is basically how I did it as well. I did drill one, then broke the rest of the tower away so I could just unscrew with the pliers. But the first I drilled before I learned that little trick. I just forgot I did that until you mentioned it.
