Does anybody know what the best way to remove the visor decals is? A hairdryer?

Replace it with a visor from a country that doesn't have them.

Visor decals? Telling you that you should not have your cat in the trunk for a week
or that this car can be fatal if driven fast...

Ask your Mom!

Normal kitchen cleaners should do the trick.

I have not used it. I have not had time. I found it posted on another BMW board some time ago. Also, I recall someone said to not leave it on too long because it may soften and wrinkle the vinyl. Other than that, nobody had a complaint about it. One of these days....
