The systems that holds it in place is basically a spring and a latch. When you move the torx screw it adjusts the spring and the latch moves up so you can slide the unit out.

If my memory serves me correctly if you look at photo #3, the upper left corner behind the MID is the latching mechanism. The right side has a lip that just slides out once the left side is undone.

Either you have to unhook that latch on the left side, or pry out the right side somehow to hopefully make the left side "pop". You could try removing the HVAC control unit and seeing if you can get the right side out.
