How to disassemble the Swiss grip safety?

Hi, all.

The spring on my 06/29 grip safety broke. I already have the replacement in hand, shipped from Switzerland.

I haven't found a good "shop manual" anywhere online.

I can see how the grip safety is held in place -- a pin at the bottom that goes into the eye of the spring, which in turn is held in a hole and slot in the frame. But before prying things apart, I figured I'd ask for some handholding first (before I over-pry and bend stuff).

Anybody know how the grip safety stamping is removed to get at the spring?
