Has anyone removed these?
They seem to be glued REALLY well.
If you have removed them (or attmpted to), please tell us.

 

Gone.

Acetone.

I always keep the visors down, and they show as yellow blobs on each one. However, they did leave a slight yellow stain....I'm working on that.

good question--mine have started to bug me

 

Is it a legal requirement to have those warning stickers if you have an airbag system in the car?

I know no one would ever give it a second look, but I was just wondering if they were.

 

GOO-GONE (tm)

Orange oil based adhesive remover. Took some work with cotton *****... but once a little corner was up, the rest was easy. It doesn't stain... just makes your car smell like the citrus section of a produce market.

 

I like the goo gone approach. I hate those stickers. I wound't like a lingering smell though- WOuld it make sense to take the visors off and out of car before treating with goo gone, then washing off really well? or is that too much work. Did the smell ever leave? Everyone comments on how great my car smells with the leather.

 

gosh, i hope they aren't a requirement cause mine doesn't have em. maybe dealer didn't have time to stick em on, i basically took the car as soon as they were done with PDI.

 

The orange smell vanished after about 48 hours.

 

Goo gone works well for that stuff, so does "oops". I had the same crap in my car

 

Gone! They simply pealed off.

I guess you are lucky cause everyone else has yellow residue under their stickers

 

damn... they just peeled off with no residue? Mine were freaking super/hot glued on and I bent my thumbnail back trying to peel the sucker! Goo gone worked great... as usual. And it cleaned up the adhesive really quickly... just smelled strong for a few days.

 

Got mine off with a combo of Acetone and Goo-gone. Well worth the time!

 

I used some of my wifes fingernail polish remover.... came right off. I love how everyone seems to be irratated with the same things hehe

 

That'd be Acetone. :D

 

Another approach so that you don't have to look at the stickers is to simply cover them up. I velcroed on a pair of visor CD holders.

Increased storage space. Increased aesthetics. No smell. Cost <$10.

 

Now that gives some stupid a$$ thief even more reason to break into your ride...but hey thats cool...

Also if more of you plan to do this with adhesive remover...do it NOW>..i heard that they are stopping production and removing adhesive removers from shelves due to it's highly explosive nature...heard this from a friend in the FBI..it's part of this whole new Homeland Security BS stuff...

 

Acetone worked great to remove the ink from the stickers. Now I have clear stickers on the visors that won't come off.

 

I thought about going to the local instant sign place and getting 2 small squares of matching grey vinyl and just sticking them on top of the yellow ones. Mine are almost like silk screened on, no edge to even get under to start peeeling off.

 

I just got some Turbo Mazda no bulls$%^ stickers from evolution vinyl works to cover up the sticky mess after removing these. Looks good in my opinion.

 

I tried to remove my driver side sticker
bad idea
I used goo gone and acetone with a razor blade and it didn't move at all

I ended up buying two stickers to cover the driver and passenger stickers

 

You have to alternate between Acetone and GooGone to get the stickers completely off. I had to alternate back and forth between acetone and GooGone about 10 times before it all came off... acetone would melt a layer of the sticker, GooGone would remove that layer, acetone melt, GG remove, melt, remove, melt, remove...

Big PIA, but worth it when done.

 

I had the silk-screened versions. They really will come off with alternating acetone and goo gone, as I described above. You just have to be patient.

 

I like to use lighter fluid for getting rid of the stickys.
