Stickers on visors
I know this is probably a dumb question but I'm gonna ask any way. Has anyone had any luck removing the stickers from the visors? I want them gone just not sure which way to try first, steam, adhesive remover or something else.

I used the wifes hair dryer and a twezers to pull them off. Be careful not to get to close to the visor material. Then I used some spray brake cleaner to clean up the visors. Yes, brake cleaner. I bought a can for $1.00 at Auto Zone. Removed all the adhesive residue, didn't leave any oily residue like some products, and evaporates within a few minutes of use.
I sprayed it on a clean white terry cloth and rubbed it over the left over adhesive. My visors look like they never had the stickers.
Trust me it works great.

Hair dryer to soften then pull from a corner. They should come off relatively easy.

Heated them with a hair dryer for about 90 seconds and they pulled right off, and left little to no adhesive behind.
Cleaned the visors with a cloth and some alcohol and now you can't tell the stickers were ever there.
Good luck.

It's a sad day when we have to have warning signs plastered all over our vehicles to tell us how to protect ourselves, when in reality all they protect is the manufacturer from being sued.

I have an 04. At first I tried the corner/tweezer approach. It's do-able, but really takes patience. After about 10 minutes of this, I tried the hair drier/tweezer approach and they were all off in about 5 minutes. I used a crumpled ball of duct tape to remove what little residue was left. Sure looks a lot better with them gone!!
