lots of old threads with pictures. Its just sitting in there no keeper holding it. Soak it well with WD40 or something. I actually hooked a c clamp on mine at one end and the other end on the metal bracket it goes through and pressed it loose. Others have tapped it out. Just be careful not to bust the hatch
