Visor Airbag warning sticker melted onto the visor
As most of you must know, there is a very annoying airbag warning sticker on the front passenger’s visor of our vehicles. Today I tried to remove the sticker off my 2 week old S500 and discovered that the adhesive of the sticker had melted onto the cloth of my visor.
Obviously it is close to impossible to remove. Does anyone know of any way to remove the adhesive or should I just bring it back to the dealer?
BTW the only MB dealer in my country (Hong Kong) is probably one of the worst worldwide. They delivered my new car with dirty stain marks and when I complained the salesman said I should wash my own car and if I want it re-washed it will take a week.

Any tips? Maybe heating with a dryer?
