Door Pins? How do you replace

I have a 88 Dodge Shadow with the hatchback. My drivers door is just impossible to shut, you kind of have to lift it up and shut it all at the same time. I figure it's the door pins. Headed off and got after market pins no problems there. Problem is though how do I get the old ones in. I can't seem to get a good enough angle to hammer them out. Is there some where I can download instructions or does anyone have an idea how to replace these? Or is there a special tool that I need to pop them out?
Thanks for the help!

Manytimes it's easier to take the door off. Some are fairly easy and it really helps to have a helper. Auto body shops have some fancy tools for these and some can be done while you wait. That may be the bargain and I'm having two done as I don't have a helper.
Mine aren't that bad but it drives me nuts! Use spray grease on these things several times a year and they NEVER go bad. Good luck,
