you can't simply "unplug" the block. Though you could replace it with time and patients. Do you want factory for factory, or are you going aftermarket?

best thing I can suggest is to unscrew the fuse block (two screws) and get a metal pick and get it out. I had the same thing happen with an inline fuse for my E-fan, it sucks but allot less trouble.

looking at my fuse block for my SA the wires are crimped in = not easy to just put back in. I can't look at my FB so I can't say the same about that.
