    Removal of speed clips

    These are real buggers.

    Try a dental pick (or even a pair of them) with a end that looks like a "question mark". Pry the contact point out on the four tips - gently- until the pressure is relieved.

    It looks like this has had a prior history of trying to twist/rotate it off - that makes a circular grove around the stud, which the tips have to move over to release.

    Hope this helps
