Removing Air Bag Sticker on Passenger Air Bag Cover

Does this come off easily without leaving any residue, or "leftover" sticker?

The sooner you take off the stickers, the easier it will be.

The passenger side air-bag sticker came off for me with no troubles.

The visor stickers sat for 6 months and I used GooGone plus more effort. I washed off the Goo-Gone (xylene?) with soap and water, just to be carefull. All looks great. No problems.

There are some older threads on this topic that go into great detail. But I don't think they ultimately add much more than has been said here.

Good Luck
