These are usually "once only" clips and dificult to remove.
However I have had some success by gently lifting one side of the clip with a small flat blade screwdriver, then rotate the clip anticlockwise using needle nose pliers. The aim is to gouge a spriral thread in the trim pin to wind the clip off.
