Default a Hobby Plus CR24 shock ?

Hi folks. I just got my new little 1/24 Hobby Plus CR24, and really enjoying it. I got some upgraded shocks for it when I bought it. I found that they are held with a screw on the top shock mount but when I tried to take the bottom on off, I ran into a problem. I could not seem to get it off and did not want to break it. Has anyone else figured out how to to change the shocks. I checked on YouTube but only one and it did not show how to actually do it.
Can anyone help on this to explain how to do it.
I appreciate all of the help that I can get.
Regards
Tar

The just pop off the ball stud. I just use an average size common screwdriver, wedge it in there and twist.

Hi again. Thanks to all for this info. I wondered about twisting them off but did not want to break anything.
ferp420: If I may ask where does one get the special pliers to do this job?
Thanks again for the help.
Regards
Tar

Hi all. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that answered to help me out. I was successful in getting the old shocks off and the new ones on.
Thanks again.
When someone has a chance would you let me know where to get the pliers mentioned above.
