    Did it on my last tundra...used a heat gun on low setting for a few minutes, then used some fishing line to take off. Came off like butter. Then just cleaned off the glue with some soap and water then used some spray wax. Could never tell it was there.

    Ya it’s pretty tight. Once you heat it up a little, get that fishing line in between the emblem and the door then use a cutting motion and should come off fairly easy. Just don’t heat up too much. Low setting and hold it a couple inches away or so. At least this worked for me on all my emblems. Hope this helps. Lemme know if you have more questions.

    Cool way to remove it @Kmiller002

    I just did the same thing yesterday. I just let the truck sit in the 70 degree weather, used 30lb test, and a rubber wedge. I worked it to get it behind the badge and pulled back and forth. It took about 2 minutes each side. I sprayed it with simple green and peeled it off. Then i used the 3m rubbing compound to clean it up.
