Nice video but it's not that easy. The old emblem had already been removed before so it seemed very effortless. I finally was able to remove it by inserting a credit card to loosen it and then inserting a small screw driver in between to pry it off.

@djc2k2k -

We did this video on a new hood that had never had an emblem installed. We installed the grommets and then the emblem .... in order to show the removal process. You are correct in noting that the original emblem may require a bit more work to get off (some do actually come off rather easy). Just take your time and be carefull.

If you accidentally got an incorrect emblem from us, just give us a call at 800-535-2002 and we'll fix you up. If your emblem came from somewhere else, they should take care of you in the same manner.

Just go to our web site (bavauto dot com) and we will show the correct emblem for your 2000 323ci. Don't worry about the size, we already know which one is correct and will only show the one for your car.

It's not that easy. The non-mar pry tool is a great idea, don't try to use a screwdriver. But the emblem in this video is pre-loosened, making it look like it's easy to get the tool under the emblem. In reality the emblem fits tightly against the hood and forms a watertight seal, it's very difficult to get anything underneath there. Go buy a non-mar pry tool, but otherwise ignore this video and keep searching for a method.

The emblems are not sealed. However, they are sometimes difficult to get started. In this case, we typically apply a few layers of tape around the emblem, on the paint, at the 3 and 9-o'clock positions. Then use a sharp small screwrirver to CAREFULLY Jab into the edge of the emblem and pry it up enough to get our tool under the edge. DO NOT pry one side too high, gouging the paint on the other side. We have also heard of sliding a fishing line under the emblem to lift it.

OK, you guys certainly made it look very easy.  Perhaps I should've ordered the prying tool from you too. By the way, your customer service was great and I definitely will order more stuff from you.
