the door ones will slide off but will probably break the plastic retainers

the bumper ones will need the bumpes taken off as they're held on by metal retainers on the inside of the bumper

Use a pair of side cutters and cut the metal retaing clips off the bunper ones. Its save alot of hassle or you could end up damaging the lugs or worse still end up snapping one :(

I managed to get the one off the front bumper with a small flathead screwdriver and didnt do any damage... wear some eye protection... they can ping off... :doh:
