I've done it...and it was no fun at all.
to get them out without a press, I drilled the rubber about 50 times with a small bit, then burned the rubber, then it was loose enough to press out the inner section and rubber. Then I had to cut the outer metal collar off (I used a recip saw with a narrow blade) being careful not to cut all the way through and score the diff surface.
Putting he new one in (OEM-style rubber one) was easy, pressed in using a small bench vise.
