    if you are trying to take the honda badge off, i just pulled my one off really hard, didnt leave a mark and the badge was in perfect condition, maybe i was just lucky :P usually there is some double sided tape stickin on all the badges so just heat it up and fishline it out

    Depends which badge he is talking about...... yes most of the H badges on the back of the hatch has pins, others like the civic badge on EKs are held there by a strong glue....

    When my G/F bought her EK the CIVIC badge had been ripped off (marking down price point # 1 ) the glue was still there..... "Acetone, soft cloth and patience is the best thing to use on these glues that have gone really hard...... the paint however had faded and as such we just decided to get another civic badge. The "25th Anneversary" badge was pulled off and the paint had not faded..... with the acetone and a soft cloth... all remains of the glue where gone in about 3 mins.
