heat it with a heatgun\hair dryer
dont hold it for long, but then use dental floss behind it. the glue slowly comes off with the heat.
there are little pegs in the emblems, so you will hit them.

I had a hard time with it. I used a fishing line and worked absolutely perfect.
Overall, its not that hard to do the process, you just have to be careful.
