Bonnet release clip

Is it possible to get this sort of clip off without completely wrecking it? Are they meant to come off?
I've got a new bonnet release lever that I want to get on, but that little clip is holding me back. Its on a mk1 Escort too.

    If you're talking about the round washer style clip with 3 or 4 'tongues' pressing up against the round pin, then you can get them off without wrecking them. Just lever a small flat head screwdriver underneath (two small screwdrivers at the same time works well).

    If you do break it, you can still buy them at most auto stores. Good luck

    Cheers
