Yeah those buggers can be tough. Sometimes spraying them with WD40 will help... you might have to do a few applications/let it soak a bit.

Thank you, I ended up getting them out, just needed a flat head and kind of wedge it and twist the flat head to get it to break free

Glad it worked. Sometimes that can damage them a bit, but even then, its better to damage the connector a bit than to not be able to get it off entirely. Good luck with the rest of the labor!
