Don't do it! It will void your extended warranty!

One of the little tabs broke on mine a while ago so it basically just sits in the hole now. I'm kinda worried it will fall off while driving one of these days...

I'll have to check the hole but i'm sure it's long gone by now. It still has one good tab and the loose one holding it so it isn't that bad.

Be careful and tug on it lightly and it will just pop off. Do one end at a time. I really can't imagine it happening but if one does happen to break beyond a reasonable repair you can find new ones on eBay all day long.
