front 1's are easy enough lift the bonnet and undo the plastic 10mm headed nut from them. then using a pair of snips gently squeeze together the clips and pushe them through (don't pull at the trim as the clips break 99% of the time.... haven't had the rears off so i'll get back to you on that 1

Aparently they come off real easy as I've had mine painted & I've been told that if/when I want to 'freshen' them up in the future it's a doddle to take em off the car :)
