Does anyone have tips on removing end caps from a Yakima rack cross bar?
Mine are stuck on pretty good and after many tries it seems like they will
tear up before they come off.

If you don't want to use them after removal, just drill a 1/4 inch hole in the
middle, then insert a screwdriver in the hole and pry them out that way.

Otherwise you have to try and get a flatblade screwdriver blade into the gap
between the cap and the bar (small to nonexistent?) and pry them out that way.
