IFAIK they can come off in any position. It's probably just sticking. Just pull a little bit harder and it should come off.

HTH Nuvo.

feels like someone has glued it on, bloody things

Took mine off last week to change the bulbs and two of them were very hard to remove.

I used square jaw pliers with double sided sticky tape in the jaws....grips the knob without damaging it.

You can alternatively use corrugated cardboard to cushion the knobs.

cardboard and cloth just slips, yesterday i had the bare grips on the plastic and the last one still wouldnt come off, hence i will need to put a new one on if i ever get the ******* off
