If you look closley one end is domed and the other hollow, the hollow end is"riveted" over to stop it comming out. You need to carefully remove that riveting to get the pin out which means you need a new one which last time i looked were still available from Honda, however the pin for the catch has been discontinued as Honda came out with a locking catch "kit" held by a screw, all because of US and Mr Nader.
