Enviro Milan Ignitor Replacement

[BARTSFAM]

This is more me venting and complaining, but I tried for over 2 hours to replace the ignitor in my 2008 Enviro Milan, with no success.
What a horrible design. I hope they have improved the access to the ignitor in the newer models.
I got the bottom screw out no problem. But the top screw is close to a welded on mount for the auger, so there is no room to get a screwdriver, or even a small torx ratchet in there to get the top screw out.
I have seen the video on replacing the ignitor in an Enviro Empress, but it is just not the same access as a Milan. Even if I dropped the auger, the mount for the auger is still in the way, and there is no way to remove the mount. I really wanted to replace this ignitor as I'm tired of lighting the fire in the burn pot manually.
Am I missing a trick, or a proper tool to remove this screw?

The best way I have found is to remove the auger motor
and the auger mount and slide the auger out. Then it is a straight shot to the two screws.

Maybe I'll try, but on mine, the mount is riveted, and not screwed to the unit. I can remove the auger, but not the mount.

You should be able to remove the auger motor, auger plate with bushing, and auger
this should give you access to the igniter
