Just use a hair dryer to warm up the decal, they peel right off. BEfore you put on the new decal use some windex to remove any grease or wax, then just make sure its straight.

It's an emblem, the f150 ones. Not the 4X4 ones. They arent just stickers

Mine actually peeled right off...lol. Of course it was hot outside at the time, and we all know what the outside of the truck feels like in hot desert weather...lol.

I never tried it, but if they are only stuck on there then this is what I heard from my Jeep forum. Take a piece of fishing line and on a hot day you can run the fishing line along the body and peel the emblems right off. Doesn't leave much residue or any damage.

I got my emblems off with a screw driver. I just pushed underneath the emblem and gently pryed up on it. I used a towel too so that I didn't scratch the paint. Then the sticky pad didn't leave much residue. And putting them on is the easy part. They have line up pins so they can't be put on crooked. They're pretty much dummy proof. But be sure for the rear emblem to get the flare side ones so that it will fit right. I just ordered mine from tasca parts for 98 bucks shipped and everything. That was for the fender badges and the tailgate badge.

Do the 09 to 12 emblems line up with the factory holes on the fender and tail gate of the 04 to 08s ???

Flareside ones for the rear? How does that look? And I got mine off some guy on Craig'slist but without the sticky part. So ima just use 3M tape and put them on like that.?
