Two safety pins taped together did the trick for me.

im testing on one of those molex to 6 pins that come with the graphics cards but until now had no luck.

i broke a razorblade(allmost paper thin) and dident worked, same with 2 pieces of metal that i took out of a RC car antena,and now tried 2 small needles and nothing yet...

PS:the small part of the antena was a ultra perferct fit for the molex connector, i think even the ones you buy on the net cant fit that right xD

PS2: just broke the needles

Try small staples with one side bend and the other straight on each side

 

If doesn't work try using a small precision flathead screwdriver on each side

 

Or Tweezers like this

tryed everything i have in the house, tomorrow i will try to go to a hardware store and see if i can find anything

I'd reccomend staples aswell. If they're small staples use two together so they don't bend so easily or you could buy staples for a staples gun which are much stronger and should be easier to use.

Here's a video with staples.

i managed to remove some with a metal strip i broke of a RJ 45

this metal:

i used a plier to bend and break thin strips(that metal breaks with a feel bends)

 

so far was the most effective of the things i tried

tried the staples yesterday, it was pretty easy sinde they are harder to bend.

thx guys
