Yes you gently pop the center up and out using a small flat blade and they come right out. Never broke one yet

I bought an entire set for like $1 each or something ridiculous, put my hood insulation on, realized it rubs the intake manifold and proceeded to rage-destroy $25 worth of pins one by one with a pair of side cutters.

Ffffuuuuuuuuuuu

I like the later style insulation better, it's just stuck on the hood, much lighter, and no stupid clips.
