Don't try it. It's the easiest way to screw up the visors. Just leave it. Every vehicle has them, removing them isn't going to accomplish anything.

I dont even think they are just stickers. I think they are somehow permanently attached to the fabric of the visor and will not come off without destroying the visor itself. I would mess with those. I hardly ever even notice them anyway.

If you remove it, it has to be replaced when selling the car.

It's illegal to sell a car without those airbag stickers.



On a side note, I have never been arrested for removing pillow tags...

they are not stickers, but are hot-pressed into the fabric like those T-shirt prints. Trying to remove them will ruin your visor. It was made this way so people couldn't get them off, and claim the stickers fell off when they get hurt in a wreck.

Or... just let them be. I read your signature and then this post and I'm baffled... why concern yourself with something like this?

I'm glad the stickers on the IS are pressed on to the visor... I've seen so many cars with the stickers peeling at the edges... ugh, looks gross.
