Don't use the flathead screwdriver! Wax dental floss, winter gloves (keeps your fingers from bruising), and patience.

It's best during the summer or when it's very humid. Or use a hair dryer method. Move the hair dryer around the emblem and not in one spot for even heat distribution.

couple ways - either saw it off with dental floss (sawing back and forth under emblem through the tape) - or, the better way, use a heat gun to heat the emblem off and the peel. Second method is cleaner. Saw method leaves you with alot of tape that's got to be removed from the paint.

---or wait until one of the 2 hot days Washington gets and then peel it off.

Is the Scion emblem on the back of an xB only held on by the same way as the xB emblem? Or is it held on by something more than just a sticky substance?
