i just did it a few days ago, but cannot remember what i did, remember it was a bitch though, one of them you have to twist and push out the front of the trim, i used a small flathead screwdriver to lift the tabs

It's a pain. I used an eye glasses screw driver to do the trick. Still wasn't even very easy.

I used my fingers... Not sure what the problem is you're having. Are you sure you can handle painting if you can't even undo a clip? lol!
