If those are the same as we have, a little turn CCW and they come off. Unfortunately it's hard to get ahold of them, and some don't turn easily. In addition, some of ours seem to be installed incorrectly. I think the installer 'popped' them on and the tabs that are supposed to be in the slots in the metal housing are, instead, above the metal housing. In the middle of a camping trip I removed one of ours by sticking a knife point in the side and using that for 'grip.'
I'd love to replace ours, but haven't got the fun coupons for that yet.
If I may offer up a 'not quite what you asked for, but related' tip: If yours are like ours it's really easy for that rubber button to get misaligned with the internal switch (off to one side). I've found if I grab the rubber button with a pair of needle-nose pliers (like on my Leatherman), pull straight down, and release, it realigns the button with the switch.
