I like the idea of these, but why do they make them so big? I have a couple sitting on my desk, and they are way larger than they need to be. Anyone make on that is closer to the actual size of the warning sticker?
The website I mentioned above to google is just about a perfect size cover up which is 4" x 6" is what is needed.

Thanks!
If memory serves well, I believe I ordered the Perfect Black.
I ordered a plain fabric set from Corvette Central several months ago. The only choice was "black." They are slightly darker than the fabric on the visor, but are the same texture.
I wouldn't have even bothered if I had coupe, but in a convertible with the top down, making the yellow stickers disappear is visual upgrade.
Can't the OEM stickers just be pealed off?
Or will it leave a bunch of glue or whatever behind?
Yes, it leaves a huge mess behind. It takes a lot of adhesive remover and patience. Some have claimed the visor material never looks exactly the same after going through all that.
It's so much easier to just cover them up. Moreover, the stick-on covers are easily removed from the stickers underneath.

I removed the stickers on my CTS-V coupe within a couple of months of purchasing it. Took about 20 minutes for each side. Warmed the sticker with a blow dryer to make peeling easier and reduce the amount of adhesive left behind. No mess and worked pretty well. Then used some adhesive remover on a cut up old white t-shirt. There was a very slight difference in color where the sticker was, but probably only noticeable to me.
This time I decided to take the easier route and bought a pair of matching fabric/color adhesive backed patches. They look pretty good. Anything is better than those ugly yellow idiot reminders.
Here are the ones I purchased from a forum vendor, Corvette Central. They are available in the stock knit fabric or alacantra. They are 4" x 6" and look exactly as the picture NMVETTEC7 posted above.

You guys have convinced me to go with the stickers.
Folks, so many of us have used a hair dryer to warm the old decal and just pulled them off leaving, for me, black micro fiber suede (3LT interior), and nothing else that even looks like something was ever there. You run your hand back and forth a bit and presto change-o you have a clean visor. Several threads on this. It took me 5-10 min. Just another option to consider.
Just installed the knit fabric sunvisor covers that I purchased from forum vendor, Corvette Central. Looks so much better than those ugly white labels.
