Warranty????

I was wondering whether to attempt to pull mine off to remove the silly labels.

I may not bother now.

Thanks for the warning.

Yep warranty job - its needed as well when the suns out and the roofs down

I'd be surprised if you can pull the labels off the visor ... it's all EuroNCAPs fault ... all the airbag warning labels shouldn't be removable ... all part of the silly Nanny-State type world we live in where you have to protect people from being idiots!

They are replacing the complete visor under warranty, apparently it only comes as a complete unit (bit of a rip off, if it wasn't under warranty would cost £30+)

Off on a tangent - pulled up outside house last night and fuel range was reading 303 miles, set off theis morning was reading 231 miles - is someone taking my car for a spin when I am asleep

Mine does that as well - if i coast a little before i stop then the next morn it will re-calculate the milage pretty quickly.

Yep I've had this, Girlfriend was trying to use it and it was a bit stiff, broke off at the mounting screw, warranty replacement I think

Those stickers are annoying me more and more.

Perhaps there is a way to re-cover the visor instead - without it looking totally naff, of course.

Black and/or grey leather to match the seats would be

My brother does interior trim (including leather) for many major car manufacturers and airlines. I'll ask when he gets back his hols and see what can be done.

I agree about the daft signage, though I believe the label is a revers prited vinyl label that is seem welded to the visor... a careful scalpel along each edge should bring it off... I'm gonna have a go at it at some point soon tho if your feeling brave you might have a go. if itgoes a bit south do tell
