Those clips are two pieces. Use a flat head and separate the top from the base. Once the top is removed you can pull the base of the clip out.

OK great thank you,

I was going crazy trying not to damage anything but was losing my patience.

THIS.
Took me a while to figure it out. I thought I was insane. And then I looked closer and realized it was in two pieces. I used a pair diagonal pliers (sometimes called side cutters), similar to this. it's great. Put a little painters tape or thin electrical tape around the heads if you're afraid of scratching/dinging anything.
