Default Trunk Tool Foam Removal?

Anyone got any tips or guides on how to remove the tool foam from the trunk? I've got most of the trunk stripped, but it appears the foam is glued down somehow. I was hoping to remove it without breaking it so I can put it back in after I'm done.

Have you tried sawing it off with dental floss, fishing line (braided would work best) or a chain saw?

I was going to suggest the same thing. As a biker I would try a shift cable. Hold it as low as possible and start sawing the bottom few mm off the foam block.

Thanks. Those sound like good ideas. I'll give the bike cable/floss a shot.

An oscillating multi-tool would make quick work to separate the foam.
