pliers. grip sticky out bit and pull.

look at the pad of the new ones and you will see the spring that clips onto the piston.

try the search as there is a big topic on this somewhere.

As above, and dont be scared to pull!

I have Avid 3's too. Best option for removal I've found is not to bother takinh them out as a pair. Grab one or the other and pull like the guys said above. Once 1 is out the other just pops out too.

Getting them back in however...
