Best way to remove most needles (not all) is turning clockwise and pull up (same time). But its better to learn how to fix crcked motors cause sometimes even if you do it the right way the motor brakes.

For example if remove needles from a peugeot 207 with the way i told you sometimes motor unbuckles. You have to learn how to fix it cause its repairable.
Another example is a fiat grande punto needles which has different motors and if you try to remove the needles by turning them clockwise 99% you will brake the stopper of the needle which is in the motor. Even this damage is repairable without removing or dissasembling motor.

I hope i helped a little but you can ask for different cars and if i know i can tell you
