D3AA TIR stuck?

For those who have swapped out their TIRs in their D3AA lights, how hard was it to take the TIR out?

Did you have to pry the TIR out with tools or did it just pop out with a few shakes?

For whatever reason, all 3 of my D3AAs seem like their TIRs are glued in. I've tried prying one out with suctions and eyeglass tools, with no luck. It's got to the point of warping the edges of the TIR and all it's done is slightly wiggle the TIR.

Let me know how yours is... Literally every other Hank light I've got that was TIR swappable, the TIR lens pops out with just a few shakes, or little effort at all.
