I thought I made it loose enough for removal if you take a very thin screwdriver or other pry tool. If it is too tight I need to know that and I will correct it for the future. I wanted it to be snug but not so tight you couldn't pry it out with a bit of effort. I might need to put in a notch somewhere to make it easier to pry out. The test models I have I was able to get apart with a bit of prying.
