Default Shifter peg change on 2006 Heritage

I want to remove my original shifter and rocker peg from my 2006 Heritage Softail Classic, and replace them with the nostalgic shifter pegs. I can not see an obvious way to remove the original pegs. Anyone out there who has done this please feel free to help me with directions on how to remove the originals.
Thanks

Vise grips or channel locks.
Count on destroying the old ones.

Make sure to use locktite.

If it's like most piece of crap shifter pegs HD puts on the bike, like Rhubarb says, it should unscrew with a pair if vise grips.
