The clips most likely are what hold the relay together. You can disassemble it to see the windings inside. Even a single blade terminal can be a little tough to pull apart, so having 5 or 6 of them on the same object makes for a tight fit.

i recently replaced my FP relay and it was a biiiiitch! i really did think i was going to break the socket, and was even looking at how to disassemble the harness to work on it outside the car. in the end, i used little screwdrivers and hooks to work it out of the socket and then put dielectric grease on the blades to help it out next time.
