One of my Ventshades needs to be removed from my drivers side window, I understand they are held on with two sided tape and I was told they are hard to remove without breaking..

Tips ?

I used a hair dryer to remove mine. The tape had become loose in some spots, so I just used a hairdryer to heat the tape up. Then I used a knife to get under the edge, and slowly pulled them off, using the hairdryer as I went along. Then used alcohol to remove the left over tape residue. You shouldbe able to pick up the 3M tape at your local auto parts store if you want to reinstall.
 






Thanks all..

I'll give it a shot with the hairdryer, that makes sense.
