anyone know how to get the retainers out of the clips that hold the brake line/fuel line up to bottom of the car?

Yep, two ways. spread the tabs in the center of the clip with a screwdriver from underneath the car, or squeez the clip together from the top with a pair of pliers. Will fall right out.

thanks,

ya you had to spread the tabs apart and it did fall out. Now i'm stuck waiting for the brake line to get here, decided while it's apart to swap out the lines on the rear axle and the rubber line to the hard line that I'm changing out.
