I just used a small screw driver to pry the opening and tiny needle pliers. Keep in mind that the handles may have been taken off a few times before. Mine had a clip on upsdie down and stuck. I had to break the clip off to get the handle off. Buy half a dozen clips and put them away. If you do break one, you can make your own by buying a door spring the same diameter that has the same size loop, then bend and snip to match one of the original clips.
