The terminals have a little locking tang that holds them in place. Use a small flat blade screwdriver or terminal removal pick to depress the tang and then you'll be able to pull the terminal straight out through the wire-entry side of the connector. Bend the locking tang back up a little before re-inserting it into the new location.

Here's a photo that shows where to insert the removal pick ... my fancy tool is just a piece of old hacksaw blade with the end ground down narrow enough to fit the slot in the connector.
