Removing foam case for standard scissor jack

I have got myself a small bottle Jack and had planned to store it where the standard Jack goes. But I'm struggling to get the piece of foam out that the scissor Jack sits in. I don't want to ruin it, because it may be put back in at some point. I just can't figure out what's holding it in - any tips?

From memory it just pulls out, maybe with a little squeeze and persuasion

ok thanks. Didn't want to 'persuade' it too much for obvious reasons, will give a bit more of a pull.

It needs a pretty good tug to remove it.

I have a foam for sale if you want one so you can adapt yours to fit your jack.

A more robust pull did the job. Bottle jack now in its place Smile Thanks

Glad you managed it. Its a bit disconcerting when you need to pull so hard, you think it may rip!
