could someone advise to the proper method of removing headset cups? I thought I read before that you
take them upwards on the bottom of the lip with a screw driver and hammer. TIA

with a hammer for a bit, then use a punch or old screwdriver to work them from the inside by hitting
the inner edge of the lip from the other side.-Bill Hamilton

The screwdriver and hammer method will work, but at the risk of damaging the frame.
