As mcduck said, you will need a small pin punch or nail set. Tap the pins until the head releases and you can pull them out the rest of the way with pliers or even your fingers. I would suggest you open the bleed valve when you go to depress the pads so any debris from the cylinder will be expelled instead of being pushed back into the lines. Are you planning on a full fluid replacement? If not, consider it.
