Squirrel Crusher (but they're such cute little varmints), thank you for letting me know about the rubber gasket. Darn near worse than double sided tape. In my case I was able to get my very well worn thin putty knife to 'release' the emblem. The gasket is toast but not for the first time I've made paper templates, then transferred to, in this case, rubber/neoprene. I keep several thicknesses on hand for situations like this. On the other hand, I don't see a problem of simply letting water flow between the emblem and hood. - unless it rattles.
