In all the mods I've done, I leave the middle one alone. It tends to stay put since it's not used to hold the ESC in place. The lower spreader can be tricky to remove. I usually heat the spreader a bit to make the thermal pad adhesive a little more pliable. Even then you have to be careful not to damage one of the FETs.
