Sun Visor Sticker Removal...PICS
The problem...these dumbo stickers:
The solution...OOPS, a tooth brush and a hair drier. The visor was taken off by removing 2 screws with a T25 Torx driver:
I just started soaking the edge of the sticker with the OOPS. Then I started peeling it back
Some areas still had some adhesive reaming:
I applied more OOPS and GENTLY brushed it away:
The cloth was wet and wrinkled so I hit with the hair dryer to dry and smooth it out:
Here's the finished product. Under the bright lights you can still make out where the sticker was. Inside the car I don't see it:
I found out how to do this by searching the forum and putting everyone's techniques together. I thought I try to give back a little to the forum by putting it all together with pictures. So thanks to everyone who posted on this topic. My stickers are gone [sm=shades.gif]

RE: Sun Visor Sticker Removal...PICS
Great post. Good pics. I removed mine with one of those steam "iron your clothes on the hanger" machines. It has about a six foot hose that reached into the car nicely. I didn't take the visor down. I used OOPS to finish the job getting up the last little bit of glue.
