Have you read the Service Manual, it says they are held in with circlips and need to be forced out, read the manual. Later models may have bolts, I'm going by memory though re the bolts.
Service Manual is in this forum. CLICK
Edit
While I was writing my post others posted with more knowledge on the subject, some have bolts and some have circlips. Later ones have circlips according to the manuals. maybe not though if you cannot see them.
