If it works, you should be able to simply drag them out and when you move far enough, they should disappear. The Standard Mac Way. If this does not work, plist is corrupted. Some time ago I saw on line explanation how to solve this. Google it. There was specific plist related to the sidebar which you needed to delete, restart Finder and it got recreated. All I recall on this.

Actually I solved the problem, when hold down the control key, when you highlight the folder, you have up to (5) options. One of them is to remove the folder. VOILA!!! gone!!! The control key gives you a lot of hidden features. Thanks for looking into it.
