Removing ECU

I am removing the ECM and I am not sure how you remove the 2 wire plugs. How do you get these out? Help Please

Thanks

The little lever on the end has to be lifted and will unhinge the connectors.
(I have an o6) newer models may be different.

I will go take a look at it again. I have a 08. I can`t seem to figure it out. On the right side there is a clip and you can push this red clip back but nothing seems to release.
I am sending the ECM to Chuck Cow for tuning. I have his flyer with instructions but it does not tell how to release the plugs.
If someone here can not tell me how to do it, I will call him in the morning

Thanks

Finally figured it out. If anyone else does this, you have to release a red clip on the right side, then you have to push down another clip to release the first clip and it will swing over to the left side an then release the plug.

Thanks for the help RULEMKR
