Cut it off and get a new one...
They should be the ones where you can tighten and loosen them, but it doesnt look like you have that one.

I don't think it should be that type,because this is a factory fitted one,never been taken off since i got the car,but I know that type you are talking about,and I will do as you said as a last option :D,don't like to cut things off

How can I squeeze it together,and there is nothing to hold it from,what tools do you recommend I should use,or is there a special tool for this kind of clips?

Theyre is, cant remember the name
Or side cutters will do the job to squeeze it together (not to much), then release and it will open
