Default 2012 Headlight wires - please help

I dont know if I am doing this wrong.

I am trying to switch out the wires on the connector on the 2012 headlights to make it 100% brightness. I did not get these from Sewell. So, I pulled out the white plastic piece. Then I pushed the metal end on the inside of the connector but the wire will not come out. Am I doing this wrong or should I press something for the wire to come loose? I'm trying to avoid damaging the wire.

once you take the plastic piece out there will be a tiny tab that holds the pin in. You basically have to take a small jewelers screwdriver lift the tab and pull the wire. If done correctly the wire/pin will slide out with very little effort, if you have to use force then you're doing it wrong.
