Has anyone tried to remove the sun visor safety stickers

Since the really small sun visors are plastic, I was wondering if anyone has tried to removed the safety stickers (the air bag warning one) that are on the sun visors. In a black interior car, they really stick out.

Let me know if you have. I really want them gone, but do not want to mess up the visors if they do not come off correctly.

You can go to jail! It's like removing the tags off of the mattress!

I removed 1 of mine so far. The driver side peeled off pretty easy. I need to use a hair dryer on the passenger side to heat the glue. It didnt leave any mess behind either.
Looks 40 times better than with it there.

you can go to jail for that?? somehow I don't think anyone would ever look for those to be missing, but i could see it being one of those things they tack on if they get you for doing something stupid/wreckless 'ok, doin 95 in a 55, illegal lane changes, wreckless driving, and OH! You don't have the airbag stickers on your visors either!'

Did you use a hair dryer on the driver side to remove the sticker?

No, it just came off pretty easy in 2 big sections. The passenger side started coming off in little pieces so I will just heat it. I wouldnt look into it any further than one got less glue or whatnot.

Cool. I am going to try the hair dryer to get them off. My driver side seems to want to peel off by just picking at the corner, but then i chicken out. It will be good to get rid of those hidous stickers.

I can just imagine some future owner 20 years from now, searching for replacements for these. And of course they won't exist.

No Concours Trophy there!
