Well i got them off.
The ones on the outside have a release that gets pinched and the one in the middle has a different connector that gets pinched another way. I used some small screw drivers to get it off. Made some other tools out of plastic sheet cut from a bottle to get the retainers off. Had to get them off too and put them on the new pump.
This ASTRO is no SUBARU way too much rust!!!
