Let me know if you can't figure it out and I can take a picture when the hurricane slows down a little!

Welcome to SVXWN, by the way
Thanks!
It took me a few minutes to figure out the plastic tab part. The metal tab is what I'm having trouble with. Does it really just slide on and off? It's really on there and I don't wanna apply brute force and risk breaking something.
I also heard that hurricane has some crazy flooding. A classmate of mine showed me a picture of a shark swimming between all the stuck cars!
Stay safe!

That's the thing: I want to make sure it's the coil before I drop $80 on a new one.
