Default Power Steering Res Clips

How do you remove the power steering res clips? I need to reuse my res on the new pump.

It pulls straight off, probably COOKED on from time and engine heat! Once you get the 2 clips off there isn't anything else holding it but friction from the o-ring. Having it mounted would give you 2 hands to wrestle it!

I got it off WOOT victory over the evil dead p/s pump. It looks as if the seal on the back side of pump was leaking.
