How Do You Remove These Clips

I'm trying to remove these clips in the trunk and fender liner and they don't just pop out with a screwdriver. What do I need to do to get these out without breaking?

Try something a bit thinner and try to wedge it in there, like a butter knife. Sometimes those little clips are a pain, but you can get it off. I believe in you!!

woah woah hold on. if these are the little round black clips that I think you're talking about, you need a micro screw driver or a thin knife to pop the round center out, once the center pops out (like a cork, but you dont need to pull it all the way out) you can pull the rest of the clip out.

I used a precision flat screwdriver (the small ones used for computers) pop the center tab out and then just pull the whole thing out

LEE beat me to it!!!!!
