How do you remove these plastic brake cable clips?

[Bike from the Dead]

I've got a couple 10-speed bikes I want to disassemble for parts, and they have these plastic cable clips that I'd like to salvage and reuse if possible. The problem is that I don't know how to remove them without damaging them. I was able to pull one apart with a couple pliers, but the teeth dug into the plastic. Any ideas on how to remove these?

put a small screw driver under it and twist. They are tougher than they look.

No kidding! I could barely get one off using a couple pliers! I'll try that out tomorrow, thanks.
