Use a spudger under one of the keys on the bottom row to very gently lift until you can use your hand to lift the keyboard.

I tried to use those ifixit spudgers with several powerbooks to lift the white plastic retainers but it's too risky.. tiny, fragile, brittle plastics. I now use regular L-shaped tweezers, much safer, more control.
