Unless you have a tool to remove the wells (which is an 8ve insert soldered to a brass rod), the only way to remove them is to put the insert in and tighten it up and with any luck, undoing it will remove the entire 8ve box - top and well. If the well is glued in there solid and won't budge, I'd leave it and make sure the top is sealed as that will prevent leaks.
