Help! Steering wheel emblem removal tool...

I intend to remove the emblem off my steering wheel. However, I read on Toyotanation where the emblem has 8-10 "pegs" on the back of it that stick thru the airbag/steering wheel cover and then are melted so as to be somewhat flattened on the tips in order to hold the emblem on securely. You have to pry the emblem up a tiny bit and then begin cutting or snipping each of those pegs, one at a time, slowly..... I figured it would be easier to do it with some type of really thin, 90-degree angle snips of some sort, as opposed to 'sawing' each peg tediously. I'm sure that there is such a tool that exists, but I haven't found it yet.




















These aren't quite the answer, but just to give you an idea of the general shape I am trying to describe... The cutting blades on these are still too thick, I think, to slide up underneath the emblem. Does anyone know what the right tool would be that I need? Thanks!

 

I'd like to see what it looks like now that you finished it! Sounds cool that you used your wood from the dash. So, do you have to "saw" at the pegs to cut them? or can you just slice right thru them? I just don't have any strength/grip with my thumbs anymore to do things like that. I generally have better luck with tools that have two "blades" or cutting edges that can be squeezed together to just snip right thru things, because I can hold the handles any number of ways.....whereas you pretty much have to hold a single-blade type thing like an exacto knife using your thumb. After dropping the item about 20 times, I usually end up slicing myself wide open...My hands currently look like I ran them thru a meat grinder from a recent attempt at peeling some vegetables for my grandmother.... 6 fingers cut... So, I generally try to shy away from knife-type objects! lol
