Default 2001 xj door pins

I bought some door pins for the drivers side door because it has started to sag. When I attempted to install them I couldnt figure out how to get the pins out. It almost looks as if they are pressed in or something. Any help on getting them out would be much appreciated.

As I understand the top and bottom of the pins are peened over.
This should help you:

If your gonna do this, you could make your doors removable by getting a less permanent pin. just thought id suggest it in case you feel like you might want to take them off now and then a little easier.
