Stupid plastic clips!

I don't know if anyone has had this problem, didn't find anything on the internet but I am trying to install my mud flaps right now and I have to remove some of those plastic clips. they are also all over in my engine bay. Every time I remove one, I break them! I'm not sure if they are supposed to break so that I have to go buy new ones or what!? Any help and advice would be great since lot's of projects I don't want to do because it involves removing these clips.
thanks

Never mind finally just figured them out, sorry. If anyone is wondering you pull the small circle out first then it will all slide out nicely.

Haha nice!

Mine still break. They are just super brittle now I guess. I just replace them with fir trees or other plastic clips I pick up at auto zone.
