Default Door ajar stripped

Ok so how screwed am I. I was switching out a bashed up door light sensor and was spinning it in and I guess 50 ish years of wear broke the nut on the inside of the body. I have zero idea how to get access let alone repair help please.

Try and figure out where the wires are going to the switch, probably along the inside under the carpet, andyou should be able to get your hand inside to get to the back side of the switch.

What year is it ?
