u should be able to get at the back of the clip with a small straight screwdriver, and pull it right out. or get a hold of it with a pair of pliers and pull it out. either way should work

Turn your ignition key to the on position and put the shifter all the way down in 1st gear, this will give you more room to get a good view of what your doing. Like the others said use a small flat blade screwdriver and pry it out. Should come right out.
