With one hand, grip the controller and use your thumb to hold down the left trigger.
-
With your free hand, insert the flat end of a spudger between the L1 and L2 buttons.
-
Use the spudger to gently pry the L1 button away from the controller and remove it, holding your finger over the button so it doesn't eject.

Repeat the previous step to remove the R1 button.
What I didn't see addressed anywhere (here or in other similar articles) is that replacement R1 / L1 buttons can be differ enough to be un-usable depending on which model your ps5 controller is. The ones I ordered don't fit and now I can't find a way to be sure I get the right ones because few know there's even a difference.
Did you already figured it out? The version the we need yo use?, We are in the same situation here.
Tried prying from the front of the buttons as pictured and my spudger broke off in the gap. A video I watched showed them being pried off from the back (between the R1/R2 and L1/L2 buttons) which seemed much easier.

It is easier to remove L1/R1 by going from below than by from above- without any damages.
Does the spudger dent or mark the button when doing this?
My replacement R1 button is different enough to not fit. Fins around center sleeve are wider. So there must have been a design change at some point.

Agree with Lora's comment above. I was able to use an old credit card to take L1/R1 out this way. I pressed down the L2/R2 button to create space to work in, then came in from between L1/L2 and R1/R2. It's easy to pop one of the outer corners first then you can work the credit card around the top and the rest falls out.
