I use a sharp utility knife and carefully whittle the outer plastic casing away. Once you get a nice 2-4" bare section of housing (you will see the longitudinal winding of this type of "compressionless" housing), you can extract the lining with a needle-nose plier after "uncoiling" the housing. If your spare housing length is short, you may not even need to whittle.
