as far as i can remember i think there is a metal pin going through the plastic and the chrome, if u just push that pin through the whole thing comes apart. Sometimes the pin can be hard to pull out just tap it through or pull it out with pliers

yeah - use a small phillips screw driver and you can push the pin right through without damaging anything.

I've just swapped over my handles this morning ... hmmm chromey goodness!!
