Default Secret to pulling out a fuse in the fuse box?

Is there a secret to pulling a fuse out of the fuse box? I'm attempting to tap into the ACC fuse to power a CB radio but I *cannot* get the plug out for the life of me. I tried for like 15 minutes after work today with a pair of tweezers. The plug is like half mangled now -- not really but the "7.5" is now scratched off, heh. I would have tried a pair of needle nose pliers but I couldn't find mine. I also don't have a fuse removal tool. Any tips?

OP, when you find the puller, don't feel bad..it was only a couple weeks ago I learned that the tC came with a cellphone holder after someone put theirs up on the PPC lol.
