V.I.N. Rivets in door jamb

What is the best way to remove the rivets on the vin plate in the door jamb? Im painting my 1967 Dart and want to remove the plate, and then reinstall it with new rivets. Thanks.

Just a thought...

Take a pic of the VIN plate's original location and rivets before you remove it.

Not sure about the USA but here in Canada its totally illegal to remove the VIN tag from a vehicle for any reason.

If its missing, Dept of motor vehicles issues a new one when you provide the appropriate documentation and proof of ownership.

Me, I would just carefully tape it up and paint around it and avoid any issues down the road.
