You can just Burn them out, or if you get a clamp and some pipe you can press them out

Burning them is easier

Blow torch is the best job but petrol should do the same job :)

It's basically the same, you just need enough petrol to melt the rubber and get it burning itself

You'll need a thin wire brush or file to clean any rubber that doesn't fall out
