Replace shifter paddles on non-GTI?

I want to add shifter paddle extensions to my car. It's not a GTI. It's a 2016 Golf SEL. I bought S2T replacement paddles, but there was no way to remove the pins holding the OEM paddles in place. I assume that the GTI has a longer OEM paddle and that the bottom GTI paddle is not wrap over the pin.

Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the OEM paddles and place them with aftermarket paddles?

I was going to cut off the bottom of the OEM to see if I could reach the pins, I thought that someone might have already found a way to remove the OEM paddles and replace them with aftermarket ones before I caused irreversible damage.
