Visor airbag stickers - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

I really hate the red/yellow stickers on the visor warning about the airbags. I've read several threads about removing or even painting them. I'd rather not go that route. I would like a solution that is easier and possibly reversible if it doesnt end up looking that good.
I've read about black stickers that cover the uglies up but I haven't seen them for sale anywhere.
Does anybody have experience with covering them up with black stickers?
And where can they be purchased?

I bought the stickers you are talking about from ebay...I think they are around $12.

Rail26, how do the black stickers look? Thanks!

They look ok. If you look close you can see the seam between the sticker and the visor, but it really isn't that noticeable. I just wish they didn't put the dang stickers on there...thanks a lot lawyers.

The stickers on Ebay cover the sunvisor vanity flaps and I will get those.
Are there any available that cover the sticker on the other side of the visor?

Hi,

With some tweezers and some Isopronanol (isopropyl alcohol), you can remove the stickers without a trace. Take a rag and drench it with Isopropanol, then hold it against the sticker (especially one edge) for a minute or so. Then carefully peel back the sticker (a fingernail works well here) and while holding it with the tweezers, keep dabbing the exposed edge with the rag and pulling gently. Takes a couple minutes and the sticker will be free. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
