I'm not sure of the best method. When I removed mine along with the maf it came right up. All I did was lift it. I don't have my car here or I would check but I think that is all you have to do.

Lift the center portion of the retainer, about 1/2", then the whole retainer can be removed. Gently or it will launch.

I use a thin blade screwdriver to lift the center section up about 1/2". After that it should pull right out by handle. It takes a little bit to get use to, but after you do they are a 'snap'.
