Brake Pad Changing

I am intending to replace my front brake pads tonight, looking at step by step guide on here, they state you need a drive punch tool to remove the pins .. is the necessary is there an alternative? as i don't have one!

Thanks for any replies!
 
only other alternative is to use a bolt to remove the pins - but be warned if they are seized in and often they are you might not get them out without a quality pin-punch...:bat:
 
I know it's a bit late now, but halfords do a brake pin punch set if your desperate for one?
