connector disassembley

Does anyone know how to disassemble the actual connectors behind the stereo? They can obviously be disassembled and taken apart (to remove the pins). I can get the top half of one of the connectors off, but the pins won't pop out. Any ideas?

ive always used paper clips to get pins out.

hmm i've read that. how hard should you have to push?

not very hard. just have to get lucky. it can be a super pita. ive never really learned the trick to it.

and you arent pushing them out. youre compressing the piece that is holding them in.

They are called pushers i believe used one before to redo computer power supply. They are kind like the grabbers that you use for jumpers or chips except when you push down a rod comes out.
