Question 99' Coolant level sensor removal: How to?

Normally these sensors are round and you put a socket over them to remove, mine is square like a small circuit board box, how do you remove it?

PLMK!

In the pic on http://shbox.com/1/low_coolant2.jpg, its really hard to tell the clip is one piece and it comes off in the direction of the battery, but it is and it does...I was able to just jam a rag inside of the hole and very little fluid was lost, then I just took the sensor and cleaned it good, stuck it back in and no more light. Once you take the battery out it is a breeze, maybe 15 mins tops,YMMV.
