Buy some new ones from your local dealer, then push the old ones into the bottom of the window, unless you look very carefully, you will not see the old ones in the bottom of the window

Our tourer days are over and we have moved on to a Hobby Motorhome
Hubby has tried tweezers, scissors to no avail. He did eventually manage to get them out with a tiny pair of pliers and an even tinier screwdriver for leverage. We have got one in the bottom of the window as well. Not sure whether this was through error, temper, or he just couldnt be bothered fiddling anymore.

I am intrigued as to why you wanted to take them out...just curious
If you get condensation inside the window, you take the bung out, put the window some where warm like in the airing cupboard (preferably over night) until all the condensation has gone and the window is perfectly dry, now fit a new bung, job done!

Yes that is exactly why we want to take them out, one of the windows has condensation in and it is really annoying.
Will try the screw idea suggested by Chalkie if all else fails then will push them in and get new ones. When I have read about removing them they make it sound really easy but they are so frustrating, you just cant get any grip on them and end up scratching the window around the bung
We've taken ours out by using a sharp edge to lift the edge of the bung, don't scratch the plastic of the windows, and then used some long nosed pliers to get hold of the lifted edge as close the the middle of the bung as possible. Getting them out was easier than getting them back in!
