I leave mine off, they are a pain in the ass and they hold moisture my lights were always wet. I've been looking for something a mesh to go over them. Haven't found anything yet.

Try a small flat head screwdriver... Pry one side up a bit, then the other. Don't use too much force or you may crack them using the flathead.
