Guys, how do you disengage pneumatic connectors? I mean grey plastic connectors on the end of yellow plastic pneumatic lines for different accessories. In this particular case I was trying to remove the stowage box between the seats, which has the pneumatic lock. Grey part is snapped inside the white actuator. Mating portion of the actuator has four slots. Is there a special tool? Or some magic twist? Or just a screwdriver? I am afraid of breaking it.

Thanks.

I had some pictures of the connector used on my lumbar support when I replaced it but I can't find them. My computer crashed around that time and they are lost.
The connector just snaps apart. It is held in with plastic spring fingers that collapse when you apply outward pressure on the male connector. Just pry it apart and you will see. I was surprised that there wasn't a clip or locking tab to secure it but the fingers have a reverse barb that secures the connector against the o-ring seal.

Good luck,

Bob
