Clutch cable, relays in the way

I'm trying to remove the cover in the passenger footwell of my 1998 Cinq sporting to replace the clutch cable. As the top screw was hard to get at I tried this highly technical method (rip the thing it screws into out of the bulkhead )

fiatforum.com/cinq-sei-technical/118313-help-clutch-cable-change-issue.html#post1237126

(I can't post a proper url with less than five posts).

It's nearly there but now the metal cover is up against a couple of relays, for the central locking and fuel pump (I think - I can feel the white one click when turning the ignition to the first position and the yellow one click when I push the door pin down).

But they don't want to budge, infact whatever they are plugged into seems to be moving with them. Do these relays clip in somehow, or are they just meant to pull out/push in?

The cover has come off the yellow one (with little effort), so I wanted to check incase I end up damaging something else, I don't want to mistake the code block for a relay and end up breaking it

Re: Clutch cable, relays in the way

nm, got it sorted and the cable swapped (on Saturday, and forgot about the thread) After going around the shops a really long philips screwdriver was found, and a little bit of plastic was clipped out of the manual holder shelf thingie so it could get to the third screw. Yet another cento job that is easy to do once you have messed around gaining access
