go in with side cutters very close to the part where the fiber tip meets the plastic. very gently grip the fiber tip and start to pull it out, changing the position of the side cutters as needed
Another idea; Isn't the tip soft enough to poke a syringe through it? If so, it should be less messy and probably allow for more refill cycles. Just an idea.
i've found that it actually helped if i didn't clean the fiber tip too thoroughly. just enough to loosen up the existing ink. i suppose you'll need to clean it out completely if you're changing the color or whatever.
