Replacing the oil pressure sensor took longer than expected so I only got the try the air compressor. Didn't work, would just blow them left/right. I'm gonna try some thin tape on poster board tomorrow... wish me luck!

I have a little parking stub next to the VIN but in about 1 yrs time it has not moved. It is not covering the actual VIN, but it is located right next to the first character. I have not tried to remove it simply b/c it seems impossible and the HUD does not help with access either.

Had this problem last month. Used an open zip-tie to get it out. Worked great. Another method you might try (this is going to sound weird) is using one of those really long balloons... you push it in there while it's deflated over the paper that's stuck... Then blow it up just a little (not too much, you'll crack the windshield) and then pull the balloon back and it should have grabbed that paper. I've never tried this so it's just a theory.
