Default How to remove end caps?

How do the ends of the harley foam grips come off, or how do you remove foam grips. I bought new bars, and I would like to use them, as they are almost new, and I would rather not spend the $70.00 on new ones.

I tried to save mine, and that clutch side grip is a bugger to keep. I shoved a long thin flathead screwdriver all the way around it, and that adhesive still kept it on. Finally accidentally punctured it with the screwdriver trying to get to the very end. Cut 'em off. It's freeing when you launch one across the yard. LOL!
