Go figure... Today the passenger side airbag sticker fell off the visor. First of all, I hate these stickers to begin with, but now that it fell off, the area is darker and the glue from it the visor left a perfect square. I guess I have to put this ugly thing back on? I can't believe there isn't a SAFE way to clean the visor fabric so we can just leave it off..

REMOVING ADHESIVE??

I ripped mine off when I got the car, but haven't found a solvent that will remove the adhesive and not damage the base material. Does anyone know the composition of the material that MBZ uses? Feels like a ballistic nylon or some other synthetic. Anyone found a solvent?

Yea, there's gotta be something. I'm almost tempted to try and find a visor off ebay and to test with.

You shouldn't have to pay for them. My dealer stuck new ones on last time for free.

Of course they fell off again a year later.

If you must stick it back, this little $2 glue from walmart does wonders.

I certainly don't want to put the plastic sticker back on !

Just want to get the glue off.

Since the sticker comes applied from the factory, I'd be surprised if the stain/discoloration would go away completely..

Lol. My sticker fell off as well. What's up with these defective stickers?
