The rivets or the torx screw? This is at the end of the shifter tube and is what moves the cable, I removed the torx screws and put allen socket heads with loctite.

It shouldn't be very tight, left hand bits are handy in this situation, but I had one sheared, and was able to turn it out with just my finger pressure to catch the sheared portion.
