Removing airbag sticker on front of visor...

I have an 02 coupe and my stickers on the visors have always been a little bubbly and warped since day 1. It really started to bother me so I peeled them off both visors.. but now there's the white adhesive shilouette left behind.. It's not sticky.. but is there a way to SAFELY remove this residual adhesive without damaging the visor material?? Any suggestions greatly appreaicated!

Same thing happened to mine. I just took it back to the dealer and they installed a new visor under warranty after I told them the sticker fell off. I guess it's a safety problem.

Use sticker shock, it comes in a spray can at the auto parts store, works on emblems too.

Did taking the stickers off make your car faster????? Did you cut about a tenth of a second off your time. Or maybe it change the weigh to power ratio for ya? HA!
