Sounds like it's a bit of an art. Are they similar to the clips used in the front window sills? (I managed to break one of those last year)

Do I just grab them and pull??

Hmmm, yes, pop in to Honda and see just how much silly little clips like that are, and you will be grateful of your £10 set of tools, belive me.
However, a modified fork would most likely work!
