The easiest way I found to get them out is to use a Dremel to cut the
pins in the middle.

Mine were so bad, I eventually had to use a right-angle drill and drill
the top half of the bottom pin out, but the remaining three halves I was
able to knock out with a cold chisel and a BFH.

Thats the two top ones with dimpled heads, don look like they unscrew but
were pressed together, therefoe one has to drill off one end to get it out.

Thanks
