When I was in high school I heated up my emblems on my Jeep with a blowdryer and peeled them off really carefully. They kind of broke off in pieces but there was no damage since I was really careful. Might do the trick for ya.
Also where'd you get them at? I want to pick some up.

emblem remove
I just did mine yesterday. Heated it up with a hair dryer(not sure that did much actually). then took fishing line and worked it back and forth under the emblem, sawing it off. Came off really easy. Rubbed the remaining stuff off with my finger, clay bared it, waxed it, done. Took 15 minutes each. The front one has two posts, so saw to the posts and around them and pull it off. The emblems will come off in one piece and re-usable

Hair dryer, fishing line or dental floss to cut the sticky tape between the emblem and car, then clean off remains with goo be gone or prep spolvent, light cleaner like swirl reomver or Zaino ZPC, polish and you're good to go. Bill

[QUOTE=hotwheels57;1573509707]Heat them gently with a hair dryer (or low temp heat gun), use dental floss (or thin fishing line) in a saw cutting motion. They'll come off just like the body side moldings do.
I used the fishing line
