Any tricks for getting cruise control cable clip off?
Is it just me or is this thing one of the most retarded changes between the FC and the FD? I searched, and everyone says that they use their fingers to get the bottom tabs and a screwdrive to get the top tabs, but I don't have 4 hands so I can't depress all 4 tabs at the same time...are there any tricks I missed in my search?

Thats pretty much the way I've done it. Except I push in the top tabs and angle the clip so the tabs move into the bracket so theyre depressed by the bracket while I push in the bottom clips. It sounds confusing but I cant think of a way to explain it better right now. I agree its a pain in the *** and I hate removing that piece. My fingers feel like crap afterwards.

there is only 2 clips if you look close, one faces down and the other faces upward. put one finger under the clip and squeeze until you feel the cable and connector rock away from the bracket then use a small flat tip screwdriver to depress the top clip and use your thumb to sort of pull the cable out and away from the bracket. it is much easier to do if you have the cable off the throttle linkage also.
i normally use a pair of long needle nose pliers, works much easier but this method works too with some practice.
