They are actually VERY easy to remove once you realize they are made up of two pieces. You use the flat head to pull up the center piece which unlocks it, then pull and they slip out easily.
I didn't realize that until the second one I did. I destroyed the first one trying to remove it all at once... but once I got smart they came out with no fuss at all.
