I have an 89 Mustang Convertible that I replaced the hinge pins on. I
didn't have the difficulty you experience. I responded before to your
inquiry that I had used a Dremel Tool. I used the Dremel with a gringing
wheel attached to grind off the top and then a punch to tap the pin out.
Maybe yours is a different configration.
Best Regards,
Banjo
