You need to remove the metal clip that runs around the bottom of them. Not easy to do I'm afraid.

a small flat bladed screwdriver to lever the corner out of the wire retainer then another screwdriver to push it back, if you have a magnetic pickup on a telescopic pole that would help loads if you drop one.

speaking from experience mate, I dropped every single one of them :lol:

They are a pita, without doubt. They should make a tool for the job imo like a 2 small flat bladed driver almost like a fork without the middle prong lol.

They get brittle with age and snap very easily.

imo one of the first tools you should buy if you don't already have one when you buy a zed :hammer:

there new plugs ... well about 18month ago there abouts

You only need to open the clip by a few mill, to clear the side lugs. If you pull the clip ends too far you can either break the centre lug or (ping) lose the clip :biggrin:
