Stick yer fingers down the tube, hold your fingers close to the circumference of the vent (near the edges) and give it a firm yank. It'll come out. I was scurred at first too but if you break a tab can just epoxy it back (I had to do this for one).

edit: You may have to use your other hand to hold the trim tight to the dash. Some come easier than others, I think the passenger vent closest to the door came out easiest for me, try there and once you "know" how it works the others will come with more manpower.

Yeah no problem, I was worried at first too. Good luck with the emblems and vents, make sure you post pictures when you're done!

I used the "Smoke" plastidip on my emblems and they came out pretty f'n sweet (If I do say so myself )

I'll add a couple of pictures in a little bit (just need to xfer off SD card)
