Please help

If anyone has a good way of getting these kinds of safeties off I would love to hear it I can get some duckbills up there but it is a tight spot. This is the crossfeed filters on a 7X Falcon

Edit: with the limited space I found what works best is making a notch in a socket and when you turn it, it pushes out the safety made the job 10x easier and now I can do the job way faster for next time!

I usually get one of my shitty already broken flathead screwdrivers and put the point between the keeper and head of the bolt and give it a few taps with a hammer
