Underhood insulation

Does anybody know how to remove the underhood insulation? Or at least recommend the appropriate tool?

using like a flat head screw driver or a door popper works best as its held in with about 4 or 5 plastic push pins

Okay cool. I have hail damage and wanted to see if I can get to hood to pop some of them out. Not sure if it will work but worth trying since hood will have to be replaced anyway if it doesn't. I was thinking interior trim removal tools would work but I have a screwdriver so I will try that first.
