I had two broken tabs when I got the car and have managed to fix one in a half assed manner.
I don't aggressively "yank" on it. I give some effort into pulling it though. I have never broken a tab and have pulled it off 20+ times.

Alabaster xfire, just do it how MrM said though, better to be safe. Maybe I just have the magic technique or something ..
