hello all!

after attempting to take off my door trim/arm mounting area. behind it as most if not all of you know are these plastic nut thingys which things like screw drivers and cross heads etc etc dnot work on.

on the DIY section, some guy cut them off (to do his suade door trim)
does anyone know a easy way to take those things off without damaging them? / ie having them reuseable?

otherwise;

are these peices possible to buy at bunnings? if so what are they called?

thanks in advance!

just pull away with some force...you are highly unlikley to damage them...i've done mine countless times and non of them have needed replacement. if u do happen to damage them i'm almost certain u can just buy them from bunnings but i don't kow wat they are called. just bring the damaged one in n ask away...
