See my other post on my search for the proper fittings. I perhaps should have kept the old grommet as you said it takes a lot of force, I used a nail punch from underneath to pot out the old one.
I installed mine by placing the gromet in the hole in the hood first, then pressing the emblenm into the whole in the gromet. I used a new gromet and emblem. The rear hole is just a guide.
