Remarkably, the roll pin was pretty much a hand press on fit. I may have had to pry it off, but it didn't have to expand to go on. I believe I got it out of one of those pull out drawers in a hardware/lumberyard, where they have stainless screws, jesus clips, brass machine screws, rubber washers, etc. etc.
Take the shifter with you so you can check the fit. You don't want slop.
I think I just cut short sections with a cutoff wheel and then cleaned the ends up on a grinding wheel.
Forego the use of drill bits, sideways as you say. Just files, steady hands and patience. It's just aluminum and brass.
For others, here's the link to the original thread:
