Two suggestions:
1. Fly Rob Hendrix in. He can fix it. He can mod anything. It may end up with an
LED in it somewhere, though, so be warned.
2. Get someone that has access to a “jaws of life” and pry the building gently

“hide it with (mumble)” suggestions too. The window washer one seems
particularly good.
