I assume it is the same as 10 speed, and yes you need a pair of thin pliers. It is a bit of a fiddle especially after some beers. Once you have done it once the next time (!) it will be a piece of piss. Fishing / medical forceps are better then needle nose pliers, as they click shut onto the spring and make it a huge amount easier. Check the youtube videos there is one that shows it. I will see if I can find it later.
