WD 40, I spun mine and did the flip that way and it spun really easy with a big wrench. When I removed them on my old car I cut it out. I heard you can press them out but you need a press.

nah... don't need a press...

I took mine out in one whole piece, so I can put it back if I ever need to...

lubed it up, then used a big friggin flat screwdriver - pried the top out so that notch gets outta the groove, then just pushed it out...

wd40 and big flat screwdrivers. i unbolted the mount from the car and used a vise. cutting it is a bitch but when you have the inside metal part out it comes out easy.

i would assume you could heat it with a little propane torch and it might be easier to get out if you dont screw up the paint.
