Rare nest base wire removal

[jjbeck]

I'm trying to remove the wires on the base pictured below; I'm calling it rare because I can't find it anywhere on the internet, only the other base. The tabs holding the wires are extremely flimsy so I don't want to break them but I can't figure out the trick to getting them to release the wires. Help appreciated!

*It works fine, I just want to repair the wall and install a plate.

Press firmly down on the tab and pull the wire out. If you failed to make the bare copper wire straight before you plugged them in, they might be tuff to pull out while you press the tab firmly down.
