removing Konig centercap

Hey all, i just got my Konig Feathers mounted today and i was wondering how do i get the center cap off? do i just pry them off? I want to paint them black, then order some domed decals from AC. Thanks!

pretty easy, if its like any other tuner wheel, use a screw driver, and use the blunt end and gently knock the center cap out from the inside
