IML: How to take apart '67 hood ornament?

[Tim Klein <iml@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I ordered a reproduction '67 Imperial hood ornament insert from 
Emblemagic, and after almost a year of waiting (as they predicted), 
it has finally arrived.  I'm not overly impressed with the 
workmanship, but it's still way better than my original one that 
looks as if it got run through a blender.

But Emblemagic only makes the plastic insert (actually a two-part 
insert).  Now I have to figure out how to get the old insert out of 
the hood ornament bezel and install the new one.  Have any of you 
ever done this before?  I can't see any way to pry it out, so should 
I just smash out the old insert with a hammer or something?  (Trust 
me, it's not worth preserving.)
