take off Front Brake Pad Vibration Damper

I am doing my front brakes and I see there are 2 knobies on the old pads
How do I get them off? I was going to try and pry them then I thought I should ask first so I don't bust em

naptownmike is infamous around these parts

You can get them off with a sharp scraper blade. I think you may want to replace them I got a new set when I did mine.
