Michael,
There is only the one screw, inside the sunnies holder. After you remove that, all that's holding it is 4 clips; one in each corner.
It is damned hard to remove, especially the 1st time. It feels like you're gunna bust something for sure.
However, I start at the front section, just back from the windscreen. Use both hands; press the sides inwards towards each other using a fair amount of strength/force whilst also pulling downwards. It will come away with a bit of a thud.
Then do the same with the rear section near the map lights; this section will be a bit easier as you've already dislodged the front.
It's scary, but you won't break anything...... (I hope)..... hahahaha
