Need Tips on Removing Trunk Emblem
If I had a straight shot at the edge, I'd be OK. But, I have a Silverhorse Racing trunk cover so the trunk emblem is set down in a recess. I don't want to remove the whole cover.
Any of you guys who have removed that emblem, will the standard trick of heating it up with a hair dryer and then prying at the edges still work?

Heat it up with a hair dryer, then use some type of tool whereby you can grab at the edge around the keyhole. I forget what the tool is actually called, but it has a 90 degree bend, then kinda bends up...it is actually used for removing cotter pins....
That's what I used, and it popped right off......

Well, I got it off. But, it was a struggle. Maybe I didn't give it enough heat. It was still stuck on there pretty good. And, there's not a whole lot of clearance to get the cotter pin puller and then a flat blade screwdriver in there. Having the trunk cover on made it difficult. I don't think I could have gotten dental floss or fish line in there. I think if I was just prying it off without the cover it would have been a lot easier because I would have had a straight shot at all the edges of the emblem.
Anyway, it did come off.
