MJ is no doubt the expert on doing this, but it can be done by mere mortals as well. I did mine a couple of years ago, once I managed to find out where they were. Not sure of the correct procedure, but removed the driver side one from below. The passenger side I got to from above, but that resulted in some blood loss and bruising.
