Default Midipe Install Help

Has anyone installed a midpipe? I am having trouble removing the plastic connectors which is on the underbody plastic panels and also the bracket under the resonators. I don't want to break them and I am unsure how they are removed.

I tried prying it a flathead screwdriver and the edges were breaking, so after I unbolted the rest of my exhaust I decided to just break the rest of it in order to remove the metal bracket. The 2nd one on the other side I was able to somehow force it off with 2 pry tools and it popped off. I was surprised to find it in one piece. Anyway, the full catback exhaust is installed and I love it

might want to move to a specific model forum since nobody has any clue what model you are referring to.

Thanks. Yeah I realized (or didn't care) after the first one.
