Push out the plastic grommit located in the windshield wiper mechanism through behind each latch. Carefully insert a screwdriver through each now open hole and lift up on latch tang. Each side will require a different length screwdriver. If yours is already broken, I would check out a friends C3. It is quite easy once see how every thing is located and opperates.
