Rolex Daytona 116518 strap change problem

Hello All,

I tried to change the strap in my Rolex 116518, but I stuck and do not know how to remove the spring bar on one side of the buckle. Do you have any tips?

I have not done this myself, but this post and this post seem to indicate that it is just a normal spring bar inside of the strap. But since the strap itself is full width and a tight fit against the metal clasp it will take some effort to move the strap to the side to access the spring bar shoulder.

HiBoost Thank you very much for your precious help!
I discovered that someone crossed the springbars and used in part the one without the possibility of removing it from inside. have to cut it :(
