Can't remove battery coin operated latch broken like really broken

white macbook A1181

help I can't remove my battery the coin operated latch broke off and no turning twisting pulling and pushing will get it to release the battery I need it to come out so I can replace the screen. I don't know what to do I don't really care if it ever works again, I'll be happy with tape until i find a new bottom case. I just have to get the battery out. Does anybody have any idea how to get this done?

Thanks

Gavin

P.S. I'm an expert when it comes to computes and Apple products. so please don't tell me to go to the Apple store it's incredibly far away and they probably will not help anyway

I haven't seen one with the battery latch missing. A photo would help. I would think you could use a standard sized flathead screw driver to turn the mechanism it the outer latch is gone.
