you need to remove the whole grill and unclip from the rear if my memory serves me - the screws are alignment screw i think.

Very carefully. You need to prize the clips out from their sockets, and you will probably break them. They sell these clips complete with adjusting screws on ebay and they are available from VW too. Why do you want to remove them? Are you upgrading to crystals?
