Hood latch release

I need to replace my hood latch release as the plastic housing just past the interior pull tab has broken. The plastic panel which needs to be removed to access it appears to be held in place by just one plastic tab; however when I attempt to pull it out with my fingers, it won't budge. I am hesitant to pull on it with pliers as I think I'll wreck it. Does anyone have a suggestion on removing the plastic tab? It's depicted in the lower left corner of the attached photo.

Thanks

Paul

Push pin removal

Thank you both for your responses. Specifically in regard to the push pin, I pulled with my fingers and it would not pull out. I was wondering if you have any advise on how to remove the push pin.

Thanks
