How are these camshaft angle sensor connector retaining clips intended to be removed?
I'm trying to de-pin these connectors and cannot figure out how these retaining clips (the brown part in the connector) are intended to come out. I've pried on these each and every way and don't want to risk breaking the connector. The clip itself can bend inward (as in the "forks" can bend towards themselves since the clip is an a U shape) but the wires themselves block it from actually moving in at all. I've found these listed on some websites for sale but it doesn't really offer any clues on how it's intended to be removed. It's almost like it's meant to not come out once the clip is in? But I can't think of why that would be the case since every other connector has a pretty easy retaining clip mechanism.
