Drill.

It's a rivet, drill it out if you want it removed. Don't use an oversized bit.

 

 

Yup use a drill with a fairly thin bit, Just make sure you remove all your components before doing so.

 

 

idd drill with one the size of the inside the head will normally just pop off and you don't make the hole bigger

Thanks guys, looks like I won't be doing this as soon as I wanted since I have to take the components out, I'll wait until I get new hardware.
