How to remove door pins?
Ahhhh, that's a civic. How didn't I notice.
You can't replace them on the S. The pin is a rivet. You have to unbolt it from the frame, remove the two bolts in the door and pull the whole detente rod assembly out and replace it. You could probably drill it out and replace it with a bolt, collar, and nylock, but it's up to you.
To beat a dead horse some more, did you put thick grease on the top and bottom of the arm? It's known to creak. You may have to work it in a few times due to the detente inside the door being the culprit.
