Car is a B5 1.8T year 2000.

i twist them backwards and pull up at the same time. works every time and it wont damage anything. dont try to pry them up.

Thanks guys for the tips on removing the needles. Will be very useful on my next attempt, hopefully successful this time.

To put them back on, just push them to the desired depth and twist them to adjust them back to zero. If you miss your mark then go around one more time until you get it right. It's that simple. No tools required.
