My mat tabs are fixed through the actual carpet. They are plastic and the mats have a recess to allow them to fit over/on and then turn the tab 90 degrees to lock the mat down.

ok, forget about the mat part, say you lost the whole mat,and all your left with is the lug in the carpet on the floor of the car, you buy new mats but they dont fit yout old lugs, so you want to remove the old lugs, how do they come out !!

Never tried it. If i was to try it I would lift the carpet and look at the underside to see if it was a two-piece "press-stud" type fitting. If it wasn't I would then try screwing it off.

Probably a "press-stud" type then. If it is it will be in two pieces and so you would have to lift the carpet to get the underside part out.

If its anything like the clips in the mat then they will be press stud type - ribbed on the inside to grip.  You could try prising them apart with a flat screwdriver...
