HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! w/ FIM outlet

Hi,
I tried to install an FIM outlet tonight, and I kinda screwed the pooch. I started turning one of the screws on the side of the outlet and it was extremely tight, so I tried it the other direction and the screw came off. from the looks of the old outlet, and where the wires were attached, I think I have to use that screw. But there was no way I could put the screw back on since the piece that held onto the screw was rattling around inside the outlet. Then I tried to disassemble the outlet, but I just ended up bending the copper bar that runs along the back of it.
So the question is: Is it possible to disassemble the FIM outlet, and if so what's the right way to do it? Considering it's cost, I really really hope I didn't ruin the outlet.
Damn I'm stupid!@!!!!#@!@
