I made sure the fillister screw was nice and straight and gently threaded it in. The plastic from the tie wrap was able to allow the screw to get moderately tight- you can definitely feel it grab at the end. Just make sure you don't over do it. Hope you can give this a try and see if it works for you as well.

Damn man, now that's creative. I've got a shit load of those little ties, I'll try it tomorrow before any glue. I'm glad I'm not the only one that this has happened too. Thanks.
