Default Help on fuel pump release clip?

Good afternoon, forum. So... gas tank is dropped, tank is open and I'm ready to do the actual swap. But... I can't easily see how the green plastic clip that holds the old fuel pump assembly in place is removed. Any explanations on how I undo this clip? Picture is attached! Thank you all,
- scooter

Just pull on it in the direction is is already pointing. There are two small "pins" on it that slot it into place. You may have to push in towards the pump slightly where those white ears stick out. And given when you posted this, I bet you figured this all out already anyway.

Thank you, this was helpful. Pump removed. Now of course my issue is.... I broke the level sending unit on removal.... new one arrives tomorrow.

Ouch. I need to replace both of my sending units. I think the on-pump one is good but the other one that is a pain to replace is an issue - I think. When I fill it up it never reads 100% full and tends to drop fast. Like my first 16th of a tank goes away in just 20 miles or so.
