Something has been bugging me since I bought my IS, and only just thought about asking your guys help! DOH!

On the drivers sun visor there is a horid sticker warning about death an distuction or something to do with airbags. Tried to heat it with hair dryer, but simply can't get it off without leaving a horid mark. Anyone any ideads???Big Grin

When you say it left a horrid mark, do mean the glue from the sticker ?

If so, the best way to get rid of that would be rubbing it down with a cloth and white spirit.

Yeah, it leaves a nasty glue mark all over it. Would white spirits not damage the cloth??

Sorry to be negative but I'd guess you can't get it off, I don't think that stickers supposed to be removed so they would have stuck it down pretty bad. Might be easier to get some grey felt and try and trim over it?
