I did the same thing on the other side with the 1st clip then used a flathead screw driver wrapped in a paper towel to pry the rest of the clips out
Hope that helps

This is the way it's supposed to be done ^^^^^^
Once you have the outermost clips released, you can safely get the rest of them out by just pulling on the dash trim. The outermost clips are dangerous, though - read below to find out way.
Don't pull on the outer ends of the dash strips to release them. It'll work, but doing it that way risks having the outermost clip scrape against the top of the dash. I learned this the hard way and the area above passenger side A/C vent looks like it was hacked up with a steak knife. I'll have to replace my dash eventually because it bothers the sh*t out of me, lol.
Just as an extra precaution, I'd wedge a towel or something right above the A/C vents and under the trim piece so that way it can cushion the space between the clip and the dash.
