Default STUPID TAGS

I just bought a new '04

On BOTH the sunvisors is an obnoxious tag warning me and the passenger that children would be safer riding in the back seat. Yea, right!

How can I safely remove these unsightly tags without distroying the sunvisors?

Thanks in advance,

Try doing a search in this and the C5 General Discussion section. I know that this topic has been brought up a few times.

The search is good advice here. Up thru '02, the stickers could just be ripped off without leaving a trace, but in '03 they changed the adhesive, and I believe it now requires a solvent. The column can still lock up, the gas gauges still don't work, but by golly they've got the best glue in the industry.

Can't you just use a blow dryer on high and slowly peel it off as the glue starts softening?

Thanks in advance,
I gently pulled mine off on my 03 coupe. It left a little bit of glue reside on the visor. I used duct tape to get the glue off the visors. Worked great. :seeya

These new tags will not come off easily so I did what I thought was the next best thing to cover these glairing stupid tags.

I painted them flat black.

I used an iron on my 04. I heated the stickers up, and they peeled right off.

Hope this helps,
