Start with some sort of lubricant on the rubber ***** AND you may have to use a flat bladed screwdriver to gently push in around the perimeter of each rubber **** to force them down into the holes. That or use a punch to push down into each hole at the top of each **** (I'd try the screwdriver method first as too much pressure with the punch method might tear the *****)

I second the use of a lubricant on the pointy end, and also pushing a punch or allen wrench into the hold at the top.
