PAIN IN THE ASS changing them. I did it ones NEVER doing it again....
don't even bother a wrestler who lacks acting skills really. A wrestler who does not get hurt and spits all the time.

You could also take the Mars to a grinder and get rid of those posts all together. I've seen that method work pretty well with nose pads. Surgical clamps are another way to apply just the right amount of pressure to hold the posts together and since they lock at graduated intervals it frees up your hands to work with the new clips. If you clamp the posts together you may have more play in the old clip to spread it apart since the clip won't be holding the rim together by itself. Guaranteed if they are original they will snap easily saving you a lot of grief.
Absolutely, I can't wait to get my grinder and really go to town on all my metals, heck, I'll fix up my Rx pair as well! I've heard it's super comfortable (well, at least that's what I read on the internet, and they can't put anything on the internet that isn't true!)

My X metals are so tight to my face without those pesky nose bombs I just shove it in between the nose bridge and my unibrow!
That's why every good xmetal collector has 2 surgical clamps!mister gun

I use a thin bladed pocket knife to gently work the c-clips open. Is that taking too much of a risk?
Nah, not if you aren't worried about breaking the knife. I would definitely be careful using a blade though. Doubt it would hurt the xmetal.Similar threads
