<VV> special clips

[Randy (Cap'n) Hook]

Let's try this trick again.  I've got a question:  What's the best way to remove the "special clips" that hold the pg shift cable in place in the tunnel?   They are mounted in such a way that you can't see them from the passenger compartment side.  I need them to mount the shift cable in my other car, formerly a '63 with 4spd, that i'm installing the pg in.  Thanks.
