Reply #7 - 07/19/16 at 07:05:50 I used a tiny screwdriver on most and a utility knife on the ones that were on a little tighter. If you're planning on putting them back on make sure you aren't forcing anything because they will get marred up or crack easily.

Reply #8 - 07/20/16 at 05:59:04 Thanks for the info ya'll and I've been successful on the removal. Yes I do plan on keeping them, especially the ones on the handlebar clamps as I like the clean look of having that hole covered and they keep moisture from pooling in there.
