If you have the tool with the sort of E or W shape at one end and the other has a 90 degree bend the correct way to use it is to slip it behind the handle so the knob is closest to the 90 degree bend. The "E" end should be between the spacer and the handle not against the door panel. At this point, it the clip was put on the correct way, a bump graduating to a sharp smack should pop the clip out. If the spacer was left out it is extremely difficult to get the tool to line up. The better option at that point is to use a rag wrapped around the handle, you pull it into the space between the handle and spacer or door panel and it should pull the clip out. the clip is U shaped with the ends of the legs kicked out and it's the end of the legs you are trying to push on to pop it out.
