Headliner clips (Reversing camera retrofit)

Hi.
I recently got a reversing camera kit.
It's mostly straightforward, but I'm having trouble releasing the clips from the headliner.
I think I may have broken one of them, which isn't a big problem at the moment (though since it's missing, I suspect it'll become an annoying rattle), I don't want to risk breaking the other.

I've attempted to take some pictures of the space where the left clip used to be, and the best view I can get off the second.

Anyone got any ideas how to get them off without breaking them?

Solved it myself.

Once I saw the shape of them, it was relatively straightforward, if a little fiddly.

Front facing part of the clip disengages by pushing with a plastic trim tool or screwdriver.
Rear part, I managed to disengage using a loop of coathanger wire.

Will have to order a replacement clip. Hopefully the old one isn't rattling around in the roof!
