Is there anything I should or shouldn't do? I'm going to try this tomorrow ( saturday ).
Someone awhile back mentioned using thin wire and push it underneath the badge and then carefully start pulling.

Nothing to it...you don't even have to be careful. Trust me, I watched Hightower do it to my car and thought I was going to crap my pants... He just put the wire underneath it and zipped it right off..
But do be careful...

A Screwdriver with a cloth to pry it out works fine, but I did break mine in the process. Then I used a dremel and a drill and a socket and a ratchet and wire stippers and those little wire slicy thingys and my web browser to go to http://www.nthcoast.com/ and this is the outcome... I do believe I'm the only person to do this so far and I love it. I think it looks even better in person.

The link is right above the first pic. You'll need to enlarge the hole with a dremel tool. Then drill a small hole for the wires, But i think it was worth it
