How to Take Screws Out of Rubber Feet

I'm trying to take off the back cover of my Razer Blade Pro 2017 and sadly Razer looks to have made this a very difficult task.

There are two screws hidden underneath the rubber feet if you can believe this.

I can't work out how people are undoing these screws.

Is there a way to take off the rubber feet or how am I supposed to get to the screw heads?

Does anyone have any experience with this?

I have all the tools necessary. I just cannot work out what I'm meant to do. It seems impossible to get to the screw head without removing the rubber.

And Razer, if you're listening, cut this crap out in future generations. My other laptop back covers come off very easily, as they should!

SOLVED.

With a paid of tweezers, I was able to remove the "plugs."

The plugs are separate bits if rubber that come out if you wedge some tweezers in there.

Next problem.

Looks like I need to find an outrageously small Philips heads screwdriver to remove these two screws.

Anyone know the exact size? I think I'm going to have to buy it. This is not a common size.

You usually find screw drivers with tiny tips in screw driver kits. See if you can find one with the size you're looking for. Are you not looking for the size usually needed also with other laptops?
