I'm confused, are you talking about the electrical clips? If so you just push that metal piece in and wiggle it up and it comes off. If you are talking about taking the injectors out of the fuel rail, then you remove the black retaining clips and pull the injector out. Make sure you get the o ring out from the top and the bottom.

There is a valve stem in the front right corner. You can push that to remove the pressure. The best thing is to remove it, because if you dont get all the pressure out when you remove the line it could shoot out.
