Question Taking off the sticker!
I finally got my license plates! Anyone have any good solution on getting the stickered registration from the front window off? It wont
peel off! Your input would be most helpful.

use a blow dryer and heat the area up and pick and peel slowly. The heat softens the adhesive.

then wipe with some adhesive remover like Goo-be-gone or something similar.

oh yeah, if you leave it on the front window, you can run w/o front plates easier since you will infact have what appears to be a new car tag in front.

SinnedTL had perfect instructions. Also you can let the WD-40 soak in for awhile and it comes off much easier.

I just used a lot of duct tape to get all the adhesive off.

There is a product called Goo Remover. Should help. Razor and wd-40 is good too.

NBP TL is right, soak it with windex and use a razor blade. Make sure the blade is flat against the window so you dont scratch it
