pretty sure its like my 94 and they are just small plastic tabs that hold them on SUPER strong. You can wedge a screw driver or something between them and pry them off or else do yourself a favor and get a pair of these for $7 and you will thank me later. I have had a different pair of these for 20 years and they come in handy for all kinds of things like prying exhausts off of hangers and or areas where you need to pry, do no/little damage and have no room to work.
