i guess you grind it off from bottom.

They have you file off the peened over side -- whichever that one is to remove it. Instructions on how to change the door check assy are on page 18 in body section of SM.

You have to remove the rivet to remove the door so rather than rivet it on again I just bought new steel rivets and dropped them into position. I don't remember the size but around 3/16" or 1/4" diameter x 1/2" long. The rivet looks normal and gravity and the head keeps it from falling thru. Being a new rivet, it is long enough to capture both sides of the mount attachment. Benefit of that method is it's easy to pop out again if need be.
