Surprisingly, the best tool is one made to tune Fords.

But seriously, when I did mine, I just put the assembly on a wooden block with a towel to protect it. As small drift punch and a few light blows by the hammer are all you need. You don;t need to whack the pins, just spread them enough so the emblem does not fall off.
