Subaru relay removal?

[D60]

I was trying to pull a couple relays from the underhood power center on a '15 Forester. Some like the horn and rear defrost are relatively short but insert into a shroud that nearly surrounds all 4 sides, with 2 narrow slits at either end.

With patience and my LN46's I was able to rock them out, but it feels wrong and takes forever.

What do the pros use?

Use a relay puller, cheap money and works well.

Perfect! I've got some rubber coated ones with blue handles that were too thick. Haven't seen this style before. Thank you!

Yes, I have the Hazet box style also that will not work with the shrouded ones, these will.
