Hello

It should be safe to use, just don't move your laptop around as the vga cable will come loose without the screws..
 
speaking from experience, I have had to cut off the screw tabs on occasion, completely fine, just don't cut too deep, stay away from the main body of the plug, just cut the cylindrical portion of the screw chamber and the square edges at the base.
