I think I remember this tool working okay. It’s a plastic o-ring pick. It might have for the bigger nubs…I seem to remember using this pick to push it through from the back side and trying to grip the “male” part with tweezers. That way you can kind of work the nub through the hole from both ends. I can’t quite remember if the pick was small enough for the smaller nubs. I might have had to use a paper clip which was annoying because the metal edges were more likely to poke through the silicon rubber.

Hope that helps! It was a painstaking process for me too.
