Yeah, a they're a cinch to get off. I would recommend some kind of a gloss coast, mind are chipped in a few places. I plan to redo them this spring and give them a good clear coat.

Did you watch the video in the first post? That's how I knew to get it out. Small screwdriver through hole in about the 1 o'clock position. then rotate and pull.
