Default Replace ***** for Climate Control Help

How can I get the A/C ***** off? Just pull? Received the Billet ***** and will replace OEM ones. Was expecting to see a set screw but NADA.

Yeah, just give them a nice, steady pull. They are snug. I ordered all 4 ***** and replaced them. After experimenting for a while, I decided that it looked best with the billet ***** on the HVAC and factory black ones on the radio. This configuration just looks more symmetrical. They do look good.

Thanks guys. Much easier than I thought. Felt stupid for asking once I went out there. Fit well look great. Now all I need is a SS Cover for the plastic silver dash. Really would like the alum stuff they have for the fuel rail covers. Sort of a woven look.
