Yep, there are some threads in the forum with pictures but in short, you have to lift the e-brake boot and there are two screws in there that have to be removed, as well.

It's been awhile since ive done mine so I'm really not sure. Maybe try giving it a little twist while pushing the tabs? Also are you sure the tabs don't pull out?

See if you can find instructions on B&M's website. I used the instruction sheet that came with the shifter and it was very detailed with pictures. All of the wiring clips were kind of tricky to get loose.
good luck.
