i don't think they're very easy to remove. i remember reading somewhere that people created custom stickers and just put em over the warnings.

You're better off to just leave them alone...I've seen some bad results when people have tried to remove these.

Besides, if you do successfully remove them, the same people that police mattress tags will come for you.

It looks like it could be a very hard job removing the stickers. Maybe you can try and steam iron the sticker to get it nice and wet so you can pull it out easier.

maybe in the 808, but i've haven't found anything stating in CADMV pages. perhaps it's the law for manufacturers to post them. look at the lower B-piller, they're there too! arrrrrrrr.

i know not to put kids in the front seat. plus if i was an idiot enough, then i deserve it!

PS, kschawaii, i hear there's some slammin IS's on oahu....

Just left it there@ I think it would not make a big different and since every car nowadays has them on the visor why take them off?

Be careful when you go to sell you car if you do remove them. I would have the person who purchases your car sign a statement saying that he understands that the tags have been removed!!! The tags ARE on the car for a reason.

Very good advice. I would also just put the removed stickers in an envelope in the glove compartment and leave them there so the next owner could have them if he wanted them.

Have some sort of "Greyish" or whatever interior color sticker and stick it over that.. that's what some of the other owners did at my previous car club did. They could remove the sticker later if the new owner really wanted the warning on there.
