Have you tried removing the cover off the recess to get to the fasteners?
Thanks for your help - the covers are stuck in place - have tried levering them up but trying to avoid breaking them as it'll mean a trip to the wreckers - cheers

Pretty sure levering them up is the only way to go.

Apply some heat and use a little screw driver with a fine flay blade.
I wouldn't be worried about breaking them, have you ever used the handle.
