Sorta depends on amount/ is it stuck?/ loose etc....describe whats still in there or post a few good pics of what's been pulled out!

I have had good luck heating up pins/ nails etc--almost red hot and stabbing it into plastic--let it cool then extract.

Kinda depends on what "BAD" might could happen, using whatever method!

If you post pics, might give us better theory's to shoot back!

Regardless, let us know your outcome!
