I broke out the hair-dryer the other day and tried to remove those ugly 4x6 seatbelt warning stickers on the driver and passenger sun shades and made a darn mess. Even under heat they don't want to come off clean. Any tips for getting these off of my AMG? I hate stickers and badges.

Photos of the resulting mess?

I have a big old bottle of Goo-Gone, Dan...the shades are like a cloth/felt, not smooth. The sticker is pasted in with the cloth. I'll post up a pic later.

I'd like to see exactly how to do this, too. The previous owner of my car started to remove them but only got them about halfway off. They're a bit of an eye sore if you aren't used to seeing them.

remove them and send them to be dry clean

i just did this on my e55 last week and, while it is slightly noticable (the suede is lighter/cleaner under the sticker and even with heating you're bound to pull the suede a bit), it looks fine and much better imo. i used a very hot blow dryer and the longer i let it heat up the better it seemed to release/look.

Do the 63s have Alcantera head liner & visors?
Goo gone or 3M adhesive remover works on the 55s Alcantera/suede with little effort. I used a syringe to apply 3M to the edge and peeled it a little at a time, wetting the separation zone with the 3M, came off clean.

+1, removes all residue, gunk like a charm!

Did my CLK 55. I peeled the sticker off and then applied ice in a baggy to any remaining glue. After the glue was hard I scraped it with my fionger nail then used something like packing tape to stick to the rubbing to take them off. Any glue that was stubborn I used a fabric shaver after the finger nail scraping. It sound worse then it is and let the suede perfect. You can't tell they had stickers on them. I think the key is cold not hot.

I have used it on several cars with the alacantra visors and it works well. Once I removed the sticker and the rescue, I did the entire area of the visors in order to not leave a stain from the product only where the visors were.

I had a visor replaced under warranty and it did not come with that awful sticker. I'm not sure of the price but no glue on the new ones.

Yeah, mine has that Alcantera liner. I'll try the Goo-Gone this week and see if I can get it off. Goo-Gone has cleaned up quite a few of my messes over the years.

Ohh yeah...got some Zanio for the outside as well.
