   I would like to put leather on mind, But don't know how to get them off. Someone said something about using a heat gun? Is there a way if you dont have a heat gun or?
   
   Thanks.

   I think you find that you do use a heat gun to melt the plastic clips

   You do need a heat gun, im sure there are other ways, but the heat gun helps big time.
