Default Removal of rear emblems on a '90

Anyone have any pointers on how to remove the rear emblems on a '90 Accord Sedan?
I want to take off the "H" the "Honda" and the "Accord"
I want to put custom ones on there.

How are they attached? Just by adhesive? Or, are there the little posts?

I believe the "H" has little posts, open the trunk and look from the inside and you may see a couple of screws, as far as the "accord" emblem is concerned just get yourself some dental floss or strong fishing line and slide it behind the emblem and slowly work it back and forth and it will remove it, then any adheisve that remains just use your fingernail and some WD-40 on it to remove it

dude.... make sure you heat the emblem's glue... you'll mess up the paint if you don't... but then again if you're going to put in custom emblems, then it won't matter much...

i used a blowdryer in low-heat setting for a minute... continue blowdrying until it's off, but don't blowdry and use the dental floss at the same time...

fishing wire works best since dental floss breaks so easy...

if there is excess blue or adhesive, use nail polish remover and not paint thinner... i used paint thinner and i had to use "scratch off" to get the haze out...
