Astra mk4 - Remove interior handle from door card of Vauxhall - machofairy

Hi

I have a broken passenger door handle and I managed to get the replacement part from a breaker. However, I am unsure of how to remove and replace it. It is sealed to the door card with these plastic rivets. Can anyone help please?

Thanks in advance

See pic here. I have circled the rivets I mean. They seem to be melted sealed:
