48cm Obitsu eye question

[Sixoclock]

Let me just say, my fingers are killing me from pushing on the eyes so much. I could not pry the backs of the eyes off. In one attempt, I stuck a eyeglass screwdriver into the hole of the stem and tried to pry it off that way.. The stem wound up snapping off in pieces, but with most of the back of the eye still attached. So I just did the same thing to the other eye. They're not pretty and are kinda sharp at the edges which makes it a little hard to stuff them back in - cause it hurts a tad. But, it works also. The eyes are in, positioned where I want them and are not moved by the neck connector.
