In case anyone finds this thread in the future, before doing a rack install, I put up a thread on how to get the plugs out without breaking any;

How To remove LR3/LR4 Plastic Caps securing Roof ditch molding

This won't help you once you've already broken some off, but hopefully prevents a few for someone.
