    Default Rear Holden badge on vz

    How to pull off? I found two clip things in the rear but I can't push it out?

    Flatblade screwdriver covered with a rag and carefully lever it off, thats how I did mine and no damage done.

    Fishing line and saw away behind the badge to cut the glue/ foam. Never put a screwdriver near paint, runs too much risk of accidentally scratching through the rag, personal experience

    No need to be scared of screwdrivers like Richard over there, its impossible to accidentally scratch the paint when youre levering away from the paintwork. Rag on the corner of the boot at the leverage point and a rag around the blade end and lever outwards. If you slip the blade flicks away from the paint. Sawing at it works but leaves twice as much double sided tape behind and takes twice as long.

    +1 for the fishing line then simply wipe off stuck tape with wax & grease remover and then polish the area. Took me all of 10 minutes to do 2 badges on my boot.

    Maybe a screwdriver would be best...
