Hate those ugly visor warnings?
I hate staring at this:
But they are painted on, not stickers, so they will most definitely not peel off. So, I used some commonly available sticky-back sheets of felt available at any craft store (this is "Presto Felt" brand), Used a metal ruler and a sharp knife to cut 10cm x 12cm rectangles, and rounded off the corners with a scissors. And now I have this: Much better, eh? Now my modding career is essentially over... Cheers, Dave |

I am new to the asian car world but why not just get the ROW pieces for the car instead? Or is that more dificult than it is with euro cars?

Rubbing alchohol + elbow grease removes these without affecting the vinyl.

Never seem to notice mine in the car... Is this another one of those OCD things? (Noticing too many things in detail when you jump into the car) XD
