Crown Spoke wheel cover

This might be a dumb question but I don't want to break anything so...
How do you remove the cover on the Crown spoke wheels? Use a screwdriver to pop it out? Or is there a special tool that I need to use? I'm getting some new rims put on this afternoon. Thanks.

That must be a different Crown Spoke than the 17" I have. On mine, there is no clip in the tool kit, but there is a screwdriver that just fits a slot on the wheel cover. One uses that to carefully pull the cover off. Try not to scar the paint on the well by prying.
