Ignition Coil Replacement

So, what's the trick for removing the mounting bracket from the coil? There's no screws just 2 pins that look like they are driven through the outer coil and bracket. The coil bracket screws into a lower bracket with 2 screws beside the distributor.

It's a 88 Camaro 5.7l

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You need to drill out the 2 rivets and use the screws that came with the new coil.
