Default Brake Pipe Clips

Quick question .............
How do you remove the small rectangular plastic / nylon clips under the car that secure the brake pipes ? Do they just pull out, or is there a "special technique" ?

As always - thanks for any advice.

If you want to remove them from the car completely, the are held on with ribbed ends similar to these. They are just pushed into a drilled hole in the car. There is a tool to remove them but if your careful you can get them out without it.
