On removal, post found to be steel, not bronze.

Remove heel plate of vintage xc ski binding

I have a pair of 1979 Asnes cross-country skis with Rottefella 75mm NN three-pin bindings that I plan to upgrade to NNN. The toe piece of the binding is held on with three screws that are easy to remove. However, I can’t see how to remove the heel plate. It only appears to be a short steel post through orange plastic with no visible screws. Full binding Heel plate, plan view Heel plate, oblique view

The plastic appears to be held on by the post alone (like a rivet) –I can rotate the plastic around the post with my fingers. Do you just pry off the post with a screw driver? Or drill it out? Or what?
