Taking off the pneumatic hose can be pretty tricky if you still have the stock tophats. The way I found it to me easiest to to get some needle nose pliers and clamp then down right above where the tophat is inside the hose and pull.

Getting them on requires the needle nose pliers too, what I do is grab the hoses with the pliers so there is just enough room for the tophat to fit inside the hose. Then push the hose down onto the tophat with the pliers.
