That's what it felt like when I tried pulling the box out from my Z. Just pull the box up and when it feels like it's snagging, pull up harder and it should free up and pull out. And, of course, make sure that the clips are fully disengaged.

I really wished I would've beat the crap out of the box, I just tap it a few times.

Here is a video on youtube might help little bit.

As in the pix, I just pull out the fuse box and there are two tabs at the bottom of the fusebox. Push the tabs down and hold them then try to open the box. You don't have to open the box completely to pull the fuse. Just open it slightly like I did shown in the pix. Good luck.

The big harness/cable that enters the bottom of the IPDM is probably hanging up. I was able to reach around the IPDM (toward the passenger compartment) and guide the harness around a corner, but I'm a small guy. If you can't get your arm in there, a wood dowel or other soft material should work.
