they pull right off. they are probably rusty or corroded. . what i do is to pick up on the arm. then on the end of it. opposite the arm. i pry up with a screwdriver. if the cab has been painted and want to save the surface put arag under the srewdriver tip. or where ever you pry against the cab.

Is there a little tab under the bottom to pull out? Been a while since I did mine and I've done a lot of other vehicles since then.

i think there is. the ones i pulled off sunday came off in the way i described above. so yours may be catching on that tab instead of rust.

if it is caught on the tab use two screwdrivers to pry it off with. once it starts to come up past the tab then you just need one screwdriver to pry with
