What do they say? I can't say that I have noticed them...

I assume that you mean the airbag warning stickers? They're not much to look at, but I believe that all car manufacturers are required to put them there.

Yes. Warning stickers. I am usually succesful in removing these from new cars - either gently peel away or use of chemicals (e.g. acetone). In this case they seem to be stuck pretty firmly to the fuzzy stuff - so I was hoping to see if someone had managed to do this without making the situation worse.

Leave 'em on. By removing those stickers, your car no longer meets US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). There still might be people out there that will place a baby/childseat at a front passenger position. Someone else may drive your car someday. Not worth the time and hassle anyway to remove those federal stickers. I'd work on that stubborn center console squeak first... my 2 cents... stay safe!

My father took the stickers off the inside of the visors on his Ford Mustang GT. Personally, I never noticed the stickers (tuned them out automatically, sort of like the internal anti-advertising filter many of us engage without knowing it) but now I always notice the lack of them in his vehicle because there's an obvious indentation/texture difference visible where the stickers USED TO BE. It just jumps out at me, whereas the stickers never even registered.

In my old car (1992 Toyota Corolla) the warnings were printed in ink on to the vinyl covering the visors... those were ugly.

No stickers on mine that I can recall.

Not that it would be a big deal if there were..

Have not taken them off of my Camry but I took them off of my 'Vette with a blow dryer to heat them up and loosen the adhesive. Looked a lot better. Plan to try and get these off as well.

I'm ticked at you, Mr. Tedpark, if that's really your name. I gave those stickers not one glace, but now that you've mentioned them, I can't take my eyes off of 'em. Dang.

Just kidding, but you are right: they are not attractive.
