I’m trying to remove the radio push buttons. I thought they just pushed on. I want to remove them and they won’t budge. Before I pull to hard I want another opinion.

They pull off
Just pull more
You won’t damage anything the plastic will yield before metal bits damage

I should add
This can be done on a button for button basis with the radio out and disassembled so you aren’t pulling from a complete radio in dash situation
But it’s the same force
I usually take the radio completely apart on the bench before I attempt to pull the knobs so that I can put a clamp behind each and slowly pry each off in a controlled way

Thank you for the advice. Every project is always more difficult than you expect.
