When you loosen the screws you are not meant to take them out, you only need them up enough to disengage the locking mechanism that the screws are connected to , once loose you push down on the screws which will disengage the mechanism holding the radio in.

This also helps when refitting the radio as the screws are a little bit difficult to get back in without dropping them into the dash, so make sure you get them back into the thread of the mechanism.
