Whole job took about 10 minutes with a hairdryer, a good sharp pair of tweezers and some 3M adhesive remover for the residue. Looks like they were never there.

Glue
I took mine off the first week I owned her. I used "Goof Off" to remove the extra glue. 30 seconds and they look perfect.

You do wanna exercise some caution when using that hair dryer though. The first time I tried that with mine, I crispy-crittered the visor material and had to replace the entire thing.
In the right light, one could see where they once were, but with some patience and some "goo be gone" they will come off. Just don't get any one area too hot, or you'll be looking for a new visor.
I thought it was a “Do not remove under penalty of law” thing. The mattress police might sneak from your bedroom into your garage! 
Sorry..

Depending on the year will determine the amount of effort to remove the label. My vette is a 2001 and the sticker can off reral easy. I hear that the newer vettes take a little more effort. 
. The visor is cloth wraped, and I was afraid to try things like goo gone. Anyone able to get rid of the glue from the cloth cover?

i never even knew they came off until I read on a post they did. So on my 04, two years ago, I started at one corner carefully and they peeled off. Both sides no problem. A light cleaning with Goo Gone, a light wash, leather treatment, and they look like they never existed.
