Transmission Filter Seal Removal.

Transmission Filter Seal Removal.
OK quick, stupid, question. Does anyone know of an easy way to get the original factory filter seal out without scratching/damageing the bore? Normally I would just pry an old seal out with a screwdriver, but it is recessed and there isn`t anything to pry against. I have always left the seal alone just for this reason, but with almost 300,000 miles I thought I should change it. I tried to use a small offset screwdriver but all I did was tear the rubber and it did not budge. Now I am commited. Thanks.

On my 98 my buddy used a little hook/pick tool that looks like a dentist tool to grab it from the top lip and pull down. Took him about 10 minutes to work it out but he didn't damage a thing besides the old seal.
