Haven't had to do it personally, but from what I hear just use a precision screwdriver to pop them out.

ok first go grab a mini screwdriver, or a eye glass tool kit.

eye glass tool
Attachment 18210

looking at the ecu side of the plug place the tool in the middle ( between the pins there is a little open space)
Attachment 18211

push the clip holding the pin in the plug towards the center of the plug. this will allow you to pull the pin out the back.
Attachment 18212

this gets easier the more you do it.

ok really easy on the clear plug but what about the 2 black plugs (b&c),those are a bitch to do atleast i think.
p.s. excellent photo's.

yup, you'll get some good bite on the little plastic thingy that you're trying to pop up to release the pin.
