Those things are a pain the behind...
I find that prying them up with 2 screwdrivers to work best - one on each side. Once it's up a little, a pair of needle-nose pliers is good to grab the base of the plastic fastener.
If these are the type that have the center insert... The center piece acts like a screw - it "should" unscrew and then just pull the surrounding base piece out.
When installing, simply insert the base, and then just push the center piece back in - no need for screwing it in.
