Looking great Corey! What was involved in taking the toyota emblem off? Are there prongs behind it that you have to release from the trunk? If that other guy doesn't want the extra one, I may be interested

Sorry randy...he already laid claim to it!
I can get you one from the dealer if you really want one

its a pain in the ass to remove that emblem because the adhesive is super strong...youll need a heatgun, some plastic razorblades, a small pocket screwdriver that you taped the tip off, some cleaner wax and adhesive remover...
you start by heating the emblem liberally with the heatgun, and then once its good and warm you work the plastic razorblades under the emblems edges (dont worry it doesnt hurt the paint) and then once it starts to loosen jam the small pocket screwdriver under the left corner of the badge and pull up...it should start to come off, then lightly tug until the pegs let go...then, use the plastic razorblades, adhesive remover and cloth to remove of all the extra adhesive...finish the area with some cleaner wax and a light buff to remove the dirt and remaining adhesive...then, install your new emblem

Ohh so you don't need to remove anything from the back? And the adhesive is much stronger than the other emblems?
