Exclamation

Fishing line, slide it between the badge and the fender and work it with a "sawing" motion up and down. Now be prepared to deal with three big holes behind the badges, including the tailgate. I got an estimate from the body shop to fill the holes and repaint, but thought it was just not worthy. Instead I got the LOBO badges and painted them. Take a look:

Yes, they are the same. There are no holes under the "Triton V8" badge.

Exclamation How To...

If they are NOT held in by the holes they are on there with an adhesive that is HEAT sensitive. Get a heat gun (Hair Dryer 'Don't let the wife catch ya') and heat it up a bit and you will find they will come off very easily.

Cool

BroncoAZ:

BRONCO. That's a Spanish word, isn't it?

And this is the guy that despises all those "south of the border" trucks. Well, isn't this ironic? You nickname is a SPANISH word.

What a PERDEDOR you are. No wait, don't look it up, I'll tell you what that means...

LOSER.

That's all I have to say to you.

You are a loser.

hey tonto (I'm sure you know what that means),

I don't despise them, I just think they look gay...there is a difference.

what's next for you? The cool chrome rocker strips and the chain license plate frames?
