Default Fuel filter replacement

I am working on my 2006 Audi A6 with the 3.2 and i have found the fuel filter, but i can't for the life of me find out how to undo the clamps. Anyone have any tips or tricks to this. I've looked around everywhere on the internet and can't find anything.

I have finally manage to undo them all. For anyone in the future who might be in this same situation this is how i did it
1) On the side with the two fuel lines going in you must push in the blue part of the middle hose, don't try to pry it out, it will break. So use needle nose plyers and push in the blue part as you pull the hose off.
2) The second clamp on that same side you have to push the two clip things in, but pull away from the fuel filter, just keep playing around with the clips until it comes off
3) Now the third clip(the one which is by itself) is like the first, except instead of the clip part being blue, it is black and you cant really see it. Use needle nose plyers or your fingers if they're strong to put that part in while you pull the hose off.

Hope this helps someone. Sorry if they're a bit confusing, i'm still a bit dizzy from the gas fumes.
