You have to play with it to bend the pin back & do
not bend to much as the pin will break off if bent to many times. I myself us a lighted magnifing glass to see & I have old dentist tools I got from ham swaps & computer shows & very good long tiny needle nose pliers for fine work like this. Now the problem is how to attack your problem as pins
can be bent down & squasted, bent back & away & they can be twisted to boot. I can only tell you that in the end that the pin must look like the other pins in the end. You could try using 2 sewing needles (sharp thin ends) one to get under or behind the bend (you may have to hook the sewing needle end with pliers or a vice or stick it in a hole then bend). & use the second needle to hold the bent area in place so you do not rip out the pin any more & this second needle can help you bend the pin back into place also if you have the room that is. So basicly get the step one get the bend out, step 2 set the pin back into the proper placement. I have done this a few times & it never was the same twice.
