How to remove fuel pump?

Hey guys, I need to figure out how to pull out the fuel pump assembly in front. I removed the cover, pulled out the sending unit. I have been pulling on the assemby but it is not budging. What holds it in place? Any tricks to pulling it out?

The main fuel pump is housed in a plastic "sump" in the centre of the tank. You need to twist this whole unit anti-clockwise to free it from the tabs holding it in.

Disconnect the two line feeds on both sides of the fuel pump enclosure then twist the entire fuel pump enclosure, should come right out.
