You'll absolutely need the correct pin removal tool - you'll almost certainly destroy the very fragile wire terminal ends using a cheap generic pin out tool.. With that in hand, you'll need to push the wire slightly back into the connector while inserting the release tool through the front.... wiggle and attempt to pull the wire out. Failing that, it'll be a case of holding your tongue just right.....
