eurorack panel - plastic rods - webb.subscription@gmail.com - 12-12-2022

Hi there,
sorry for this question, I know it's silly, but i'd rather ask before I do something sillier.
I own both the FK and the FK FX, and I've been planing for a long time to moubt them in my rack.
I've done it with my FK, and it was really easy.
My concern is abut the FK FX : on the original frontpanel, there are some little plastic rods to guide the light from the coloured leds to the surface of the frontpanel.
So I suppose I should take these rods and put them on the eurorack frontpanel.
My question is : is there a good way tu pull the rods out from the former panel and to put them backin the holes of the eurorack panel.
I mean : without breaking them. :)
I thank you in advance
fx

You can just pop them out. There is no danger of breaking them - rather, losing them :P Just push them out and pop it into the other panel!

ahahaha ! I just didn't figure out they'd come this way (up) ; I've been trying for a while to pull them out from the inside.... 
well, that indeed was a silly question.
thanks anyway !!

Careful! Since changing from standalone to euro faceplate, the plastic rods on my field kit fix fall out as soon as the module is tilted forward! Very very very annoying
