Default How do ya get the MAF sensor connector off?

I want to put in the K&N airfilter I got, but I cant get the damn connector off to swing open the airbox. I pulled out that red metal thing as far as it would go, but the connector wont unplug.I even gently tried to pry it off with a screwdriver, but it acted like it was still retained somehow.I didnt want to risk busting something so I'll ask you folks how to remove it.

leave that alone all you do is open the box, take the old filter out and the new one in, there will be a clamp on one end of the box, just unclip it

Really? I thought you had to open the box a ways to get the filter out. Mine would barely open unless you unplug the maf.

I you must unplug it then just pull out on the red clip and then push on the black tang and pull off. The red tab is the safety safety catch.
