Reuse of existing wires to new sockets

Based on the answer to the first question I understand the wires just push in to the socket but how do you remove them from the existing sockets so they can be re-used? Do they just pull out? If I cut the wires and strip new ends, they become too short. If I use new wire I have to solder it to the PCB. Any ideas please?

    The wire can usually be removed by carefully pushing a small nail or large hat pin into the wire entry to release the existing wire.
