Charlie,
I have successfully removed them by sliding a small flat blade
screwdriver underneath it and prying it up in small increments. Be sure
to get as close to the rivet as possible. Some spray lube also helps.

Pretty much boogered up the last one I removed - any tips that might help? I have a new rivet, so that's disposable. Thanks!
