You have all kinds of room. Stick a screwdriver in at 90° to the clip and twist.

Give the cap a smack to take pressure off of the clip.

Try the other side

That worked! A friend came over and hammer released the other side first and then he smacked the head and then proceeded to hammer release the side splitting the c-clip.

Giving the head a smack was an excellent suggestion and that’s exactly what my friend did.

This problem has been solved!

Thanks to all that offered suggestions
