    I removed these warning labels by using a heat gun on low and used tweezers to get ahold of the corner then gently peeled away while stopping and heating as needed. Came off sooo easily and the visor can take a lot of heat from the heat gun. The hotter and slower you peel it will result in less glue left on the visor.

    I then put a nice layer of Goo-gone (orange smelling stuff not the chemical smelling stuff) and let it soak for a little then hit it with the heat gun on high heat. It will start to "steam" and then grab a stiff brush and scrub it off while wiping with a old lint free cotton towel. Do this a couple times and it will look brand new with no residue at all. The hairdryer wouldn't get it hot enough so I risked it with the heat gun and worked perfectly and scrubbing pretty aggressively left no "pilling" or damage to the visor whatsoever, the heat gun is where it's at I believe to release as much glue as possible. I also removed the clear insurance pouch that's to the right of the warning patch and it's put on with a way stronger press/glue and couldn't get all of that off but way better than having it reflect during the day/night. I have the leather package with maybe a different interior fabric on top than some so just a fair warning.

    Hope this helps someone even if it's to get the extra residue off by using the heat gun and goo-gone trick.

    Have a good one!!
