Headlight connector terminal tool

The saga begins with me changing my headlight bulb in my '01 'Box last Fall when it was pretty cold out. When I put the headlight cassette back in, the flange on the headlight connector (the blue thing with the orange weather stripping) snapped. I sourced the part - not an expensive piece - but none of my "normal" terminal tools seem to be helping me ease out the wires to change out the terminal.

I don't want to get too aggressive with it until I have a better clue what I'm doing and the service manual that I have is no help on this one.

Does anyone have any insight into how to do this seemingly easy task, or does the answer begin with "porsche special tool"?

The "season" has finally arrived and I'm anxious to get my car back on the road.
