Default Removing rear subaru badge

Hi,

As stated above does anyone know the best way to get the big subaru badge in the middle of the bootlid off, ive used the old hair dryer trick on the others but seems likes its attatched....might just be me being thick. Any help would be great,

Many thanks,

Rob

Boil a kettle. Pour over badge(s) and slowly peel. Once finished use T-cut and buff
