Ignition coil boot

hey guys, i was wondering how to remove an ignition coil boot on a straight 6 97' s320. I figured the coil boot should pop right out so i tried yanking it out and the brittle plastic cracked, so now i got a stub where the ignition coil boot is and i have no way of getting it out.

have you tried a piece of a clothes hanger , something long and skinny , to wedge down in there and pull up the pieces.
