    I do not see a slot there for prying it off. Can it be pried off with a taped screw driver, or does it need to be popped off from the inside with the wheel off?

    I would pop in out from the opposite side. Why risk scratching/cracking the center cap? It's most likely plastic.

    Okay thanks. It just bothers me that the port/ dealer slapped them on randomly. I would like to put them in so the bottom of the emblem points to the valve stem. Maybe I am too OCD...

    You've got really sharp eyes, too much free time, or you're OCD. Maybe some combination?

    I mount my bicycle tires so the labels line up with the valve stems...
