Default Emblem removal

Has anyone ever removed all the toyota emblems off the rear door? I want to make sure there are no pins on the back of the emblems and that they are attached with glue only. Any tips would be helpfull.
Thanks

There are no pins with the badging, really easy to get off with the right tools. 1) High quality or professional Heat gun (some use a hair dryer) 2) Use a rapid remover solution found here:Adhesive Removers for removing vinyl graphic film materials

Tips from there site:
1. Use heat lamp or heat gun to soften vinyl.
2. Pull the vinyl from the surface.
3. Apply adhesive remover with cloth or paper towel.
4. Let sit for at least 90 seconds until glue softens.
5. Scrape with squeegee to remove glue residue.
6. Wipe area with a clean cloth or towel.
7. Remove any remaining glue and dry surface.

3)Used a plastic scrapper to gently pry emblems off and used the remover to take off residue

Should take you 15 minutes for all the emblems using above technique

removed oem emblems and replaced with JDM ones


**As for the tailgate, not sure if there are pins there for the toyota emblem.**

How about your fog light?
Yous use the exsiting fog light wire or aftermarket ones?
How do you mount it? Do you need to drill any holes?
I am thinking to install the fog lights w/ angle eyes.
I also like your shifter and bumper guards. They looks very cool.
Do those bumper guards come painted? Are they expensive?
Thanks!
