Removing the inner door panel clips.

Hi,
   Has anyone got any suggestions on how to remove them (the grey/white clips)? I tried using a screwdriver and even a knife they just dont want to come out. Haynes manual shows a custom tool but I'd prefer ti try and remove them with out expense (that and due to my rural location I'd have to get it posted anyway).

Chief.

Try one of these mate, Ive had one in my tool box for years and it comes in handy for loads of little jobs.

oh what! wish id seen these for sale. I wrenched most of mine out with various pliers and had to buy new clips / studs cos they were so bent. Also lost a fair bit of skin on my hand as I recall
