    Does anybody know if it's possible to order left and right sun visors that do not have all that NHTSA-mandated crap about airbags on them? IMO those non-removable decals mar an otherwise fairly upscale interior. I never travel with small children nor infant carriers in the front seat. Seems to me it's a case of nanny-statism gone a bit too far.

    There are YouTube tutorials of folks removing the visors and getting the labels off with all manner of chemicals, but I wasn't up for that.

    Did you measure the labels and create a simple Cricut template with rounded corners? If so, mind just zipping it off to me? I don't have matte black here, but I'll ask a coworker who has a machine (or I'll just get some lol)

    I didn't use a machine, I just used scissors and a rounded corner punch, also from Amazon.

    There are Night Jack/Black Jack decals you can get to cover them up. Also Union Jack if you want to go all-in.

    I used a solvent to clean up that safety stuff on my first Mini (21 years ago). It was a bit of an effort, but it worked well. I've been eying the visors on my '22. Can't remember which solvent, though.

    I'm pretty sure the euro version doesn't have labels on them.

    I tried removing the visor warnings in my 2012 Countryman, but I gave up after removing about 5% and realizing how long it was going to take.

    Warm the label up slowly with a hairdryer, peel off and clean up with Goo Gone? I mean that's what I used to do with those license plate stickers.

    Is amassed me how some guys worry about those visior stickers spend some time to clean your interior or add some air to tires bc a monitoring System is wrong up to 5 PSI and you spend $800 for prematurely wearing tires and look on a road where you going not on a sticker and don’t remove a ViN # bc looks so bad on Windshield That statement is for a joke as I’m a big joker .as using a heat gun removing stickers don’t burn your SE
