Help removing the Fender emblem

Hello All,
I bought some "Camper Special" fender emblem inserts for my 66 F250. Have any of you taken the emblem off before? I tied putting a wrench on the bolt with no luck. How do they come off and what tool will I need?
Thanks,
Nestor

get a putty knife and a thin bladed straight slot screwdriver and carefully pryon an end......they are held on by barrel clips that grip the pins of the bezel...2 on either end and one in the center...There is a very slight change there could be nuts used...by ultra slim chance...

I place a plastic Bondo spreader on the panel and then pry on the emblem with a tool around the perimeter until I get movement, then work it off. Yep, barrel clips hold them on. The hard part is getting them to start moving; once you get some action they aren't too hard to get off.
