Started stripping my megane lump tonight and was reminded of these horrible connectors

I only seen them on the injectors on the megane lump but the 19 was them on the CTS etc

Is there a proper way to get them off or do you just have to piss about with a small screwdriver?

no, it's true, use the screwdriver to pop off the little retaining clip and then the plug should just pop off, its the only way i've ever got them off

grab and wiggle.

the ford set up where you push the metal pokey bit they spread out is better.
