How do you remove the washer jet nozzles?

I have some after market ones to try but can't figure out how to get the original ones off the bonnet :-(

 

I've tried to slide a plastic card underneath from all sides expecting some kind of clip to release but they won't budge. Can't access from below as the bonnet is kind of "double skinned" at that point.

 

I don't want to damage them by forcing too hard in case I decide to put them back on....

 

Anyone know the secret? Thanks!

They're a git to do !

 

They have a sprung tab on each end, the shorter sides. I found that I had to compress each end at the same time, to release them. Maybe try a credit card or similar under each end, pushing in and lift. I used a couple of small screwdrivers in the end, and mullered them, but it doesn't matter as i'm painting the bonnet and will replace the jets with yaris ones anyway ;)

I'll try a card from each short side then, so far I was doing basically this but just one side at a time..... Cheers.
