    i just picked up my 2019 OR, and noticed an over abundance of “safety stickers”, all over my visors.
    Just a question, those aren’t meant to come off, are they?
    Cause, they ain’t coming without leaving a mark!

    You could place unsafe stickers over the safety stickers...

    Talking about the sun visors? There's two philips screws in each, then pull directly downward to release it from mounting tabs. Use an iron and patience, and you will be able to peel them off.

    Yep. Kill them with steam.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/warning-stickers.552892/#post-17992704

    A little steamer gets them off easier than the alcohol method. You can use either GooGone or GoofOff to clean up the residue. GooGone smells a lot better. Neither smell lingers.

    No. He stopped making those stickers for liability issues.

    No big deal. :cheers:

    It would be easy since it is just a rectangle. Be sure to go with matte black to reduce glare. That is why I just went with the straight removal.

    Ah!

    For me, I just wanted them gone since they were distracting.

    I agree. Anything is better than the white and yellow

    The airbag one? If so, yep!

    Just peel it away. The rest comes off with WD40.

    I took all mine off. It was easy with a small heater. Took them off of the sun visors, door frames, and bed. Took about 20 minutes. Looks clean now.

    i agree they get uglier and uglier... but think trade in and liability if there is an accident and someone gets hurt. dealer is not going to assume that liability (read that "we don't want it without putting stickers back"...you pay in the end) and if it happens while you own the truck or someone that buys it from you gets hurt, you are going to need an attorney. you are giving them a really nice foothold. just things to think about. if you never have passengers and never sell the truck, no prob.
    but in the spirit of the thread, i have not seen anyone in any of the threads i looked at say it comes off completely and you 100% can't tell it was ever there.
    for both reasons, be smart and cover it with something and remove it when you don't want to be vulnerable to the liability or replacement cost.

    Yeah I have an OR. I think it's the locker warnings.
