How to remove a bulkhead connector

I cannot find where the FSM describes how to remove the bulkhead connector on my 78 Magnum. The illustration in the FSM seems to show that there are just a couple of internal clips that hold it on. So before I made a terrible mistake, I thought I would come to the experts to get the inside scoop. Do I just pry it off? Is there a screw or bolt I didn’t see? Yes, the negative battery terminal is disconnected. Thank you…

Replacing brake lines

I am replacing brake lines on my 78 Magnum. My question is about the retaining clips on the firewall and frame rails. Do I pry them open and lift out the lines and then re-close them? Or open them up a little and drift them out with a piece of hardwood…

I suppose we will be seeing a lot more cars like these in the near future.

Late 70’s LeBaron

Sorry for asking such a simple question…
What are the areas to look out for on these cars? Are they like the F-bodies and the front frame rails? What about the trunk floor rusting? Or…?
Thanks
