Mixer tap cartridge disintegrated during removal

[JimExtension]

I’m attempting to replace a mixer tap cartridge, but it has disintegrated during removal. I’m left with the plastic outer body stuck in the tap. Any ideas how I might be able to remove this?
I’m not sure if I’m supposed to turn it, or pull it. Neither seems to be working.

Thank you!

Try a pair of screwdrivers in the base holes and cross them and rotate?

Is it possible that this is a non removable cartridge? Ive broken off some of the sides of it, got past a rubber ring, and now it seems to get wider than the metal enclosure.

New taps?

Small needle-nose pliers or dental hook.
