2Pin power connector for hot end stuck in the PCB

I am replacing the hot end and the connector is stuck in the PCB, I am not really sure what the best way to get it out is. I have tried using needle nose pliers to hold connector and a hex key to push the snap fit in with no luck. I am paranoid if I use too much force I'll break it and have bigger problems. Has anyone encountered similar issues or have any suggestions?

Best Answer by zealousPrototype:

Solution was more force on the snap fit pin while supporting the back of the fixture with needle nose pliers. I did pick up some wire shrink wrap in case of a wire break to allow me to splice the wire together again. I also have access to solder.
