It may cost more to get free-range vegan plastic, but it's worth it!

No pins, thankfully.

There are two pins and an indentation for the rear "T". Not sure about the "T" up front.

Perfect! I don't mind the T logos, but removing the side emblems makes one less thing to clean/wax around. Thanks for the idea

Wanted them gone since the day I got it. Useless clutter, like the whole front end! It was in the 40's when I took mine off. Used a hair-dryer for heating the adhesive, but it's good stuff. Wear gloves when using the floss, or your fingers will come off before the badges do.

I'll give it a shot this weekend. Though I live in an apartment so I can't get a hairdryer out to the lot... I may try to use a heat-gun attachment I have to my butane soldering iron.

OHHHH be careful with that. You want to warm it not roast it!

Definitely. I also have a removable heat-deflector attachment that I'll try to use first. Then I'll have to make sure I don't scratch the paint.

Toyota spent all of 30 cents on those badges, I would not use anything like real heat on them.
