So I was like, screw it. Got it all apart and found out the replacement piece is costing me $20. Not bad.
There is 2 #2 that is holding the center #13 by the latch mechanism.
Maybe you can try break that loose first, then pull #13 and #9 all together.
I looked at the clip and it seems like impossible to undo it without having them pulled off together, because they are hidden and unreachable.
I assembled mine all together again and it seems unnoticeable, but I am going to replace them anyway.
I hope you don't break yours, because based on my vendor, it is only 1 in the US (which I am getting) and 0 in Germany.
Good luck.


One more observation:

I think I need to learn to relax a bit from you, I am stressed about my vehicle being damaged and you seem to be cool with a lesson learned...and oh well, I'll just replace the part...
