Default Removing warning stickers from Interior

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering what, if any, are the issues with removing those annoying "Airbag Warning" stickers that are on the sun visors?
I know they are there for safety reasons, but I've read them many times over, and don't plan on putting a kid in the front seats!

Does anyone know if removing them would create problems for selling the car later on? Or perhaps getting Ministry of Transportation issues?

"I don't know officer they fell off after being in the hot sun for a few days...."

I doubt it'd be a problem but you may want to check for sure with your local police dept.

I had a crazy hard time with mine - apparently all 02+ models have stickers that are "melted on" so they are very resistant to goo gone and other household removers - I used a LOT of nail polish remover and finally saw some results . . . good luck.

On that Note I just imported an A4. I have to put the French ones on for the OOC inspection at Ukrainian Tire. Think they will actually care about these?

I haven't really searched for the A3, but most TT guys just buy the European ones. The run about $200 at vagparts.com .

Just saw this and thought I would share my recent experience. Bought a 1 yr old 08 A4 Avant a few weeks back. Not sure if it was becuase the stickers were on for 1 year or not but I have a very difficult time with this. Goof Off, 99% rubbing alcohol etc all didn't work great. The white and yellow portions peeled off fine, bbut the black portions wouldn't come off without a fight.

Not happy with the results as it required a certain amount of scrubbing and the finish where the stickers were are now glossy and smooth versus matt and rippled. In certain lights it is noticeable. Also had issues with too much moisture afterwards and the material isn't as "tight" as it was. Drivers side is ok, passager is worse. Looking at buying a Euro one for the passanger at $120US from OEMplus. No such luck on the drivers side as it has homelink and it appears that this isn't on the Euro models.

Had I known the results (and time that it took) I would have left well enough alone.
